Groove Shark’s term of service indicates how Bitcoin will be used:
If you decide to use Bitcoin as your choice of payment, please be aware that Bitcoins are instantly converted to currency (USD) at the time of purchase, so any refunds will be in the same value of USD at the time of purchase but not necessarily the same number of Bitcoin (if the exchange rate has changed).
