    If it’s well made truly random noise, then it would never be identical. That’s why it’s costing Spotify so much in the first place. Compressors can’t reduce storage and bandwidth use because it’s always different. Even if the human ear can’t discern the difference.

      I would wonder if it’s just procedurally generated random noise, can it be said the file has human artistic intent and can it be protected under copyright?
