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)

You can't sue people for something they haven't done yet. Presumably if and when the actual music files are released the damages will go up proportionally - probably to something like $(volume of the universe / Planck distance^3)

I am not sure the shareholders will accept such a meager compensation. Did you include emotional damage in your estimate?

You can't

No. Because you're meat. Wake the fuck up.
