While streaming services and the record companies seem to have things mostly sorted out, there's still a very, very large collection of rare music that you won't find anywhere. There were sites like what.cd or waffles and probably a few more that were a treasure trove of archived music, ranging from demos to rare releases to obscure casette tape black metal to concert bootlegs. The biggest collection of hard or otherwise impossible to find material. And it was taken down, because the record companies or artists couldn't stand it.
I hope there's data hoarders out there that have the collection. I hope the work continues out of sight.
