How do you even sue a shadow library? Aren’t they like, behind 7 proxies?
Plus, they’re using the neighbour’s internet!
Checkmate, spotify!
They’re gonna shit when they find out about yt-dlp
Apparently it’s legal and acceptable to demand, through a court, enough money to destroy the world economy.
Seriously, if I were the judge I’d throw out the lawsuit until they come up with a remotely realistic number. As it is, it makes the whole lawsuit look like a joke.
Is this the music industry asking for more than all the money in the world again?
Yes, I did say again.
LINE MUST GO UP. ANY LINE ACTUALLY. WE’RE FUCKIN DESPERATE.
- Businesses everywhere
Well, more along the lines of 10% of all the worlds money.
… very reasonable indeed 😜
Say whatever you like. Like a tape measure, Money isn’t real, Giygas. Stop trying to Rape Heidi. She’ll get Mad, Pokey.
we have stood with the artist community against piracy
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Anna’s archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata
over a massive music data scrape
So when are you going to sue AI companies?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Anna’s archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata
Were they not going to release the songs as well? They just started with the metadata?
ETA: Yes, this is from their blog post about it:
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)Correct me if I’m wrong, but Anna’s archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata
200gb meta, 300tb music. Just 300tb not released yet. Might be, might not.
So when are you going to sue AI companies?
I think some sue suno and settle for money. And GEMA (germany) sue openai for songtext.
13 fantastillion dollars
What?! To pay Africa’s debt for sure.
Spotify doesn’t even have that much net worth how the hell one can steal more than that anyway? Also this isn’t even stealing just a digital copy sent by spotify servers
Probably theorizing every potential peer is pulling the whole archive.
So net worth * 100.000 potential peers = $$$Perhaps Anna can pay them off with theoretical potential money too? Like, a big collection of monkey NFTs.
Bruh xD
Weird, I wasn’t aware that Spotify OWNED this music. I’m fairly certain they they only license it.
Old man yells at cloud
VC company yells at swarm
$13.000.000.000.000
Like, are we 12 now? I too would come up with these bazonker numbers at that age.
Fuck Spotify,fuck the current legal system that got us here
The higher the number, the more the stock goes up when they announce it. Should be opposite though really if these guys are incompetent enough to lose $13 trillion because of a single pirate.
Are you going to tell me that investors are bumb enough not to see that nobody will ever even see a % of a % of a % of a % of a % of that number?
Why, none of that matters. Stock markets run on the hopes and dreams of investors. That’s how guys like Sam Altman can get away with evaluating their company at $1 trillion despite the bottom line showing them doing nothing but wasting funds.
So in other words, yes, they are that dumb
That’s about as realistic as the Russian court that fined Google for two undecillion roubles.
That’s about 20 bucks though.
The fact that Anna’s Archive isn’t responding to the court tells me they couldn’t give a shit about the lawsuit.
Glorious.
“Sir, this is Wendys” energy.
Working Anna’s Archive link :
Did they release the actual music yet?
It would be funny if they didn’t actually have any of it and were just pestering the industry. But they did release all the metadata, and spotify seems to think it’s legit…
TY!
