Unnamed 53-year-old made at least £230,000 from artificially generated plays of hundreds of tracks
A Danish man has been sentenced to prison in a “historic” case after being found guilty of fraudulently profiting from royalties on hundreds of tracks on music streaming sites.
He was sentenced to one year and six months – three months of which he must serve in prison – and the judge confiscated 2m Danish kroner . He was also fined 200,000 Danish kroner. Maria Fredenslund, the chief executive of the Danish Rights Alliance, which reported the case in 2018, said: “We are pleased that the court has affirmed that streaming fraud is deeply criminal and serious. It’s a historic verdict that sends a strong signal about the severity of stream manipulation challenges. The case also shows that this type of fraud can be detected, and that both rights holders and authorities take the issue seriously.
