Previous thread >Not sure what private trackers are all about? The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker service by providing members with opportunities for professional development, by recognizing technical competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.
Remember the following: >Staff occasionally read these generals and have posted here before. >Staff may pretend to be normal users asking for invites and when you invite them, they ban you for inviting strangers >This is a thread for educational purposes only don't offer or ask for invites.
why dont they want anyone to have all the metadata what can you even do with it? does it contain the torrent files for all those torrents or something?

Jace Hall
Is it worth the hassle to wait for the interview on PTH? Will it be as good as what?
Wyatt Price
someone screencap it
Blake Nelson
What are the odds
Chase Bell
no pth was too stingy with invites so now that they have less torrents than apollo and got btfo they are trying to catch up
why the fuck didn't you put it on a public tracker
Wyatt Watson
thanks you sirs!
Jack Scott
HELL YEAH
Jeremiah Lopez
Someone explain to me please the significance of the json meta data please
William Ward
Do you not know how archive.org works? You don't have to torrent it.
Eli Edwards
its every song by an artist named jason, hes very popular
Ryan Sanders
don't torrent or you'll be /marked/
it pisses pth off. make sure to make as many copies as possible
Mason Murphy
they'll be used to verify uploads and their release info, and for the purpose of preservation
Camden Hall
>it pisses pth off. But why tho
Grayson Brooks
idk i just know some people might get mad on pth if it gets uploaded and maybe someone will screenshot their posts and post them on here so we can laugh
Colton Thomas
this is the 'file structure' of wcd, if you will
we'll have a pretty good idea of "what are we missing" once... and maybe IF... the data is crunched properly. there's going to be a lot of work for real data engineers to sort this out properly, but it's great to have this data
Thomas Edwards
because they're pure elitists
they would rather destroy something than let someone else have it
Lincoln Roberts
pth wants to keep that thing private?
yeah, >GETFUCKED what the fuck is wrong with you people
are you in the business of preservation, or the business of preservation in your own self interests?
get fucked. this is data the entire world deserves access to, we need to know what we've got and what we're missing to truly know what we've lost
pth is cunts if they legit thought they'd keep this private lol
Connor Smith

Brayden Reed
QFT!
Xavier White
?
Angel Robinson
Hello everyone, it's the guy who uploaded it. I'm going to work on a little Python script to parse the data into an easily-readable format. Would this be desired?
Owen Hughes
lot of work to be done for sure any tools you have that'll let people have better access, please release consider githubbing this data
thank yoiu
Charles Sullivan
yes
Luis Kelly
>let's evaluate the situation,get together with sysops, come up with a plan and start to go through and upload the data >GIMME GIMME I WANT IT NOW WAHHH stop trying so hard to be a faggot
Jaxon Flores
He has been crowned
Camden Sullivan
notice the ops staying quiet
Hudson Thompson
it took me atleast 3 reads to understand what the hell he was trying to say. and when i finally understand i realized it was stupid and (i think) against the rules
Christopher Ramirez
Uploader man here. Currently unzipping everything, it'll take a while. The archive contains about 1.1 million files. I may have to plug in my external HDD for storage reasons.
Colton Butler
I'm betting that there's no chance that this data is getting uploaded at all now because of all your retarded drama.
Brody Torres
guy was just blogging and not really asking anything
Parker Murphy
demonotakku has ruined EVERYTHING for us
Gabriel Walker
Don't let that autist demonotaku get you down.
Tyler Wood
>I'll be there in 5 minutes!
Luke Garcia
...
David Nguyen
i can honestly see this happening, and it hurts my heart from what i understood, he was basically telling people to make sure they tag their uploads properly "so don´t forget to tag it that i can find your uploads without notifications.lol" so he can autosnatch them
Kevin Foster
...
Xavier Gutierrez
>Demonotaku posts the links and shit on Apollo whining about elitism and the need to share that shit everywhere >Some user here posts the links here whining about elitism and the need to share that shit everywhere Really makes you think.
Zachary Roberts
fuck you asshole be a real pirate, not just some cunt stealing music
this information deserves to be public the world lost music when it lost what.cd more than some little group of tryhard "we know better" fucks shouldn't get a say in releasing the raw data
Hunter White
than the guy is a cock
Christopher Brooks
PTH MODS ON SUICIDE WATCH
Brayden Butler
See I reckon that Demonotaku just wanted to ruin it for us.
Christian Sanchez
you have to wonder why this guy has an account anywhere must have nudes of trump
Joshua Robinson
Fuck off Demonotaku.
Logan Lewis
nala blown the FUCK out
when will he shut his failed tracker down!
Hudson Murphy
Never should've let than idiot on PTH (or any other tracker desu).
Oliver Barnes
Alternatively Z and his bunch of monkey retards uploaded it in an effort to prevent it from being released at all.
Sebastian Gonzalez
so we're starting a demonotaku GlobaledPool?
Caleb Jones
oh look it's /ptg/ blowing sysops again
>they know whats best user ok famalamadingdongs whatever you say
Lucas King
don't toy with my emotions
Anthony Cooper
"Z and his bunch of monkey retards"
i don't know what the fuck kind of hero worship you think he's got but i've never seen that shit
tired meme lad
Evan Jenkins
>I'm so butthurt about PTH getting the entire WCD database I know I'll just upload the data to Archive.org just to scare the uploader off it!
Carter Morris
Hey, he knew the risks of not cross-posting to APL.
Jordan Campbell
fucking LEL
Jose Scott
Uploader / Python guy here. Going to bed for tonight but I've left the PC running and will check on it with TeamViewer as the zip extracts.
Others who know how can help by downloading the zip yourself (posted earlier) and extracting it and parsing it if your PC is much faster than mine.
I'll update you guys tomorrow.
Aaron Rivera
mess with pooploop and get blown the FUCK out
Bentley Garcia
mfw people getting butthurt about guy 'only' posting on pth, when really he even posted on Sup Forums
Ian Diaz
Can somebody upload NAVVI - // to Apollo?
Does PTH have it?
Thomas Garcia
There isn't much to say. It's a bunch of JSON from API queries. There's some metadata. This isn't the Pentagon papers, guy.
Aaron Kelly
what's this?
Christopher Wright
Lol dude I know parsing the files past JSON isn't really that important. Half of the reason I'm doing it is just to practice my own skills.
Levi Thomas
Proof that cancer shit like Z should be thrown into jail.
Jack Walker
> > >what's this?
I wasn't the one whining; I just uploaded since some people asked. Community service.
