// Flatten
// spotify.flatten(id, callback);
// 
// - returns array of tracks from any uri or array of uris.
spotify.flatten('spotify:track:6bc5scNUVa3h76T9nvpGIH', console.log);

// spotify.flatten(uris, callback);
var uris = [
	'spotify:album:5NCz8TTIiax2h1XTnImAQ2',
	'spotify:track:3gGhcHH075qI9CPSXKnxy1',
	'spotify:artist:5RBdF1pJSLF3ugc2Y2PoB8',
	'spotify:user:syknyk:playlist:0Idyatn0m08Y48tiOovNd9'
];
spotify.flatten(uris, console.log);

Flatten does not guarantee a list of unique tracks. E.g.: Using .flatten on an artist will return a lot of duplicates, because most albums are released in many different territories (countries) by different labels, and each album have their own listing of tracks.
