[ale] OT: Is this for real? Fwd: Notice of Claim of Copyright Infringement.

[Ed Cashin]

I think amazon.com used an Adele "Someone Like You" song as something
automatically downloaded when their downloader software is installed at one
point.  Maybe just a coincidence, but if you did download that file
accidentally, maybe that's how you got it.
