That seems kind of heavy-handed. What if you had a small amount of space left on your phone that you needed? If they can just inject an album onto your phone, what else can they do?

I thought about this to. Looking into it, it's not directly downloaded onto your phone, it's available for download from the cloud though. If you listen to it you're listening to on data/wifi. You have to tap the icon to download the thing so you can keep it on your phone. And Yelsel, to hide it from your phone, you need to delete it from your cloud via iTunes I think...

It's such big news that the BBC, who five years ago proclaimed U2 as "the biggest band in the world", posted an article about how to delete it.

change your iCloud settings. i think apple just gave the album to everyone for free, so it showed up on your phone.

I saw that and I was really confused because I hate U2 and I would never download any of their albums, even if I was fucked up and don't actually remember doing it.
