Are these the actual music files you can use to play as well?
Would be amazing if it was. I would love to just have Spotify's music on my nas
I'd wager 70% of what's on Spotify is not worth preserving since its AI slop.
I'm not convinced AI slop can compete with the back log of organic slop personally.
But yeah a fuckton is probably slop either way
AI slop is accelerating exponentially for the foreseeable future. It won't take long for world data storage to be a limiting factor.
Yeah as with most of the internet, it’s only worth downloading anything uploaded before 2023.
So far, LLMs have done so much more harm than help.
That's what they're for.
Interestingly enough, with the data they provide, figuring out how much of it is AI slop wouldn't be that hard I think
If your nas has 300tb spare, you could.
How much could it cost $10,000

This gif is going to completely lose its punch in a couple years.
A RAID6 of 24 * 20TB drives could contain that with both parity and hotswap, with room to spare. Let's say $400 per refurb drive, $2500 rackmount SAS enclosure, $2000 SAS RAID card, $14,100 total. Assuming you already have the server and power and SAS cables.
Considering the Price per TB is 10-11 US dollars, it's gonna cost $3500 max
Is it that cheap now?? I would kill for 10tb
It's nowhere near that cheap.
Here you go mate. They dont have 10TB in stock, but the do have 20TB refurbs at around $15/TB.
Thx
Where are you getting $430? Im seeing $306, which puts the per TB at $15.34.
A lot closer to the $10 the poster above was talking about than the $30-35 the person mocking him was saying drives cost.
Its also a refurbed drive from a well trusted, quality vendor that does testing on each drive and offers a 3 year warrenty.
You're right, sorry, my mistake. I had the wrong currency setting.
I read it as 30tb in my head. 300tb is a bit more than i can manage
The article claims that they are:
They've released torrents of the metadata, and they plan to release the music files, but they haven't yet. They intend to start by offering the downloads as bulk torrents, but they're open to considering implementing the ability to download single songs in the future.
So in short, yes, but you can't download them yet
