I'm sure it's been scraped plenty of times by AI companies who are doing way more damage.
Yeah but that’s damage to artists. AI music gives Spotify something to put into a playlist that they don’t have to pay even their meagre rate to.
It hurts record companies. They want to own all AI generated music. It's quite clear with what happened to udio. It's monopolies against open source, not AI against artists.
