not sure if it's very related but apparently spotify is killing their api. hopefully annas releases proper dumps that can replace it..

I believe it is very related, either as the cause or the effect.
Just an excuse to bring it over the finish line what some at management wanted to do but had no justification to begin it.
At least IMO.
It is also possible that Anna's Archive moved through with their project because someone learnt about Spotify plans in advance.
I doubt it Anna’s Archive has bountys for scraping like this on loads of stuff.
I believe they have a 1 million USD bounty for scraping google books.
Fair.
Of course it can't replace it, it's a point-in-time archive.
yeah sure, but it should cover up the vast majority of stuff except new releases
What font are you using? It's nice 🙂
Gulim (default font for korean windows before vista, so similar to Tahoma) with font smoothing disabled :)
