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.

    See, 75% of output of 2 years vs 100 years of music production. Also popularity was factored in.

      A bot could put 100 AI generated tracks on Spotify per hour. 50 bots doing the same is 120,000 tracks per day.

          120,000 x 4 = 480,000

          This is easy to do with a calculator.
