First time I've come across Anna's Archive, and only because of this news about scraping and backing up Spotify metadata and music files.

It's an open source search engine for shadow libraries, aggregating records from Z-Library, Sci-Hub, LibGen, and others. 👀

Backing up Spotify

We backed up Spotify (metadata and music files). It’s distributed in bulk torrents (~300TB). It’s the world’s first “preservation archive” for music which is fully open (meaning it can easily be mirrored by anyone with enough disk space), with 86 million music files, representing around 99.6% of listens.
