      The fact that annas archive exists despite how fucked up everything is right now gives me hope. Every time I start to feel cynical about the future I remind myself that there’s people out there working to preserve the art and culture of our modern era with all the most powerful corporations and governments working against them, and they’re succeeding.

      Anyway, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

      None of these are audio torrents.

      That’s not released yet.

      The album art torrent is a goldmine. Such a pain in the ass sometimes to find high quality album covers.

      People are saying it’s 300TB but this link is only 200GB why?

        The 200GB is the metadata sqlite database only

          God damn! That’s essentially just text, right? Or would it also include album cover art?

            Basically, the id3 tags for the music files. However, Spotify uses several more nonstandard tags in their database, some of them are great to make playlists.
