Got a little surprise today to discover the addition of several hundred songs from artists I've never even heard of before! LOL

The files aren't in either of my computers, as they would be if I'd downloaded and imported them, they're just showing as being available in the cloud.

Double checked all the devices and computers authorized on my account and nothing new is showing there. I've cleaned out most, but not sure if I got them all, yet!

I just found this rather interesting, since people have complained about disappearing music!

If anyone found unexplained Red Hot Chili Peppers in theirs a few days ago, those are mine that disappeared.....give them back!!! :D

This happened to me, but not hundreds.

Most of the songs were apparently purchased by me years ago... though I don't know any of the artists.

I think they were part of "sampler packs" that iTunes had for free download, though. So I probably did "purchase" them at one point.

These weren't, they were full albums and nothing I've ever purchased.

Ill suggest calling apple and having them track it down. It would suck for those purchases to have been made maliciously from your account.

Checked my account already, all's fine. They weren't listed as purchases, anyway.
