5M to protect against scraping? That sounds... a bit much, no? 34 employees with that one task for 2 years doesn't sound believable to me. Why is WorldCat worth anything anyway?

Defendants, through the Anna’s Archive domains, have made, and continue to make, all 2.2 TB of WorldCat® data available for public download through its torrents,” OCLC wrote in the complaint it filed in an Ohio federal court.

Just set a torrent size of 10tb and hit go. I'll move that to permanent storage when it's done.
