Anna’s Archive выложили на торренты 6,4 ТБ музыки из Spotify — это лишь малая часть всего архива

The Anna’s Archive project has released approximately 2.8 million audio files, totaling around 6.4 terabytes, from Spotify's database. The files are distributed through 47 torrent distributions and include music, individual releases, and metadata. The initial release features the least popular tracks, labeled as "pop_0," and contains embedded metadata such as track, album, artist, label, and publisher information. Anna’s Archive aims to preserve music and plans to publish more files in phases. Spotify has responded by disabling accounts involved in illegal scraping and has filed a lawsuit against the operators of Anna’s Archive, claiming damages in the trillions for copyright infringement. Some domains associated with Anna’s Archive have been disabled through court orders, prompting the service to consider relocating its infrastructure. Maintaining the full estimated catalog of 300 terabytes may require two to three times more storage space, potentially needing around 50 hard drives of 18 to 20 terabytes each.

300 ТБ музыки скоро на торрентах. Хакеры скачали 86 млн треков со Spotify и готовятся слить их в сеть

A group of hackers associated with Anna’s Archive has downloaded 86 million tracks from Spotify, representing 99.6% of all tracks on the platform. They plan to make these tracks publicly accessible by distributing approximately 300 terabytes of music via torrent files. Currently, they have released only metadata, revealing that over 70% of songs on Spotify have fewer than 1,000 listens, and they have published a list of the 10,000 most popular tracks. Spotify has confirmed the breach, stating that a third party was collecting publicly available metadata and using illegal methods to access some audio files. Anna’s Archive claims the hack is part of its mission to preserve music as part of humanity's knowledge and culture.
