Original music has been pirated

I have original music I wrote/own that I uploaded to my Apple Music account. For fun, I asked Siri tim play one of my songs. Low and behold, my song played, only it has been arranged and performed by someone who is not me.

Does anybody know what’s going on, how to stop this, and how to get the pirated copies off Apple Music.

V/r,

Gerald

Ripped songs replaced with "purchased" songs (that I didn't purchase) I've just noticed that two songs from a ripped CD have been replaced in Apple Music (version 1.3.3.2) with "purchased" versions of the same song. But I never purchased those songs. Moreover, the "purchased" tracks appear to be uneditable! I can open the track info, but I can't edit any of the content. See image below. Two tracks from Paul McCartney's best-of album, which I had ripped, have been removed and replaced with versions that Apple Music now claims I purchased. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a setting I can change to avoid it happening again? Is there anything I can do to return these tracks to the album they belong to, or do I have to just rerip those tracks??

Simply uploading a song would not present this issue.

I agree. But it happened. Anybody else ?
