This just sounds surreal.

So instead of buying music, you can now "pirate" it, then allow iTunes Match to "legitimize it" for you.

Bingo, free "legitimate" music (I assume with artwork/etc included).



Even better: Hack the iTunes Match service to let it think you have MP3s, that you don't even have on your system. Bam, instant free access to all music on iTunes. (well almost free)


I suppose its possible that all of the music in torrents has been finger printed in some way or another which would identify it. Unlikely though.
