The moment I saw their Spotify announcement I expected it to go bad. And they didn't even release anything from it other than metadata!

(I understand this case is about their books, but I feel it got a lot more heat due to the Spotify action.)

Please, dear Anna, don't disappear on us. We need you for the books! Plenty of sources for music around.

Yeah, I don't understand why they made that announcement then didn't actually release it. All of the heat, none of the archival benefit...

		It's definitely a stupid move. Even if you are going to do it, it should be completely independently of AA to distribute the risk.

Metadata? Pretty sure they scraped the files and released them too.

		Nope, only metadata so far. They keep promising to release the files, but havent yet.

Yeah at the least they should have created a separate brand and released it under that.

		But what about the clout. Some people may say that Anna's has great OPSEC because she hasn't been identified following this release, but part of OPSEC is reliability, which they clearly failed at with the Spotify release. They let ego come in front of their OPSEC. http://opbible7nans45sg33cbyeiwqmlp5fu7lklu6jd6f3mivrjeqadco...
