I have 3gb of space to share. Are there 150 other people like me that want to do some distributed hosting? What technology can handle this?

99% of the "original" Spotify's contents are crap or AI bloat. The rest was already on torrent before.

That’s disgusting. Where would you find such torrents?
The fact that annas archive exists despite how fucked up everything is right now gives me hope. Every time I start to feel cynical about the future I remind myself that there's people out there working to preserve the art and culture of our modern era with all the most powerful corporations and governments working against them, and they're succeeding.
Anyway, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
100%
...and Archive.org
And Wikipedia.
I would never bookmark such a site! [clicks bookmark button]
Download and seed seed seed
what a beautiful, simple and well designed website
The album art torrent is a goldmine. Such a pain in the ass sometimes to find high quality album covers.
What I used to do is google the name of the album and append to it "cover itunes". Usually I would find high quality images of the albums that way

Oh my god did you guys just steal my music?! You each owe me $0.003 !!!
Did not see this coming when I built my 40TB NAS
At 100 now and it looks like I need to quadruple
I'm building my first Linux setup and have a NAS planned out. I'm so stoked. I got a raspberry pi kit from my dad as an Xmas gift yesterday.

My soon to be homeserver will have an astonishing 4TB of space. The CPU can handle up to 15TB (according to official specifications), but I am lacking drives that are big enough.
If I ever get the money to build a proper NAS I will 100% start going all in on Storage and start doing stupid shit like mirroring Wikipedia. I will probably not start mirroring the entirety of Spotify (which would be kinda sick NGL.), but I kind of have the problem that I Am kind of a data hoarder that likes to store excessive amounts of stuff I will never need. In the future I will also start seeding all the music I have, but I need a VPN with port forwarding for that beforehand (I'm currently kinda broke, so won't happen that fast)

BLESSED
But are the files high quality, or is it the same low bitrate garbage they send to their users ?
