The real headline would be: "Good Samaritans working for the safeguard of culture have created a backup of the giant library initially hoarded via Piratebay by Spotyface. Equipped with bots, they extracted the audio and metadata from the cache created by Spotyface on their local machines, and thus assuring perrennity for the hard labour of millions of Musicians"
Interesting.
Meta Data... that doesn't even include engineering credits on most releases. :80s:
Cant find the torrent. Do you have a magnet link?
From the website:
The data will be released in different stages on our Torrents page:
[X] Metadata (Dec 2025)
[ ] Music files (releasing in order of popularity)
[ ] Additional file metadata (torrent paths and checksums)
[ ] Album art
[ ] .zstdpatch files (to reconstruct original files before we added embedded metadata)
Leaking in order of popularity is pretty funny…
