A year and a half in prison for a hacker who sold unreleased songs for BTC

He sold at least two of Sheeran's songs on the dark web in exchange for bitcoin. Police confiscated seven devices from his home, including over a thousand unreleased songs from 89 artists.

The hacker not only caused significant financial damage to several artists and their production companies, but also made it impossible for them to release their own work.
