    I’ve honestly been trying to figure out this move for weeks. What was the point of grabbing it ALL when it’s so easy to rip whatever you want with some of the tools? Was it just a big “F you”? And peace - that’s a reason :) In that case they could care less what they get sued for. But to me it seems like unnecessarily whacking at the hornets nest. I hope it doesn’t bite them in the arse someday.

      I mean i don’t think spotify is easily rippable with any tool. So it was an immediate chance to get them all. Also annas archive is all about storing and preserving thoose files. It is useful when a song gets removed from spotify or something

      Yeah, as ridiculous as the record labels are – their reaction is exactly what one would expect after such a high profile move.
