It's kind of crazy to see it all on there for individual download. It should only be available in bulk imo, to act more as an archive and not a pirate site.
Why would one not be able to get individual items from an archive? It's there for people to access the stuff, not just for people setting up other archives.
To avoid being sued? The internet archive shouldn't be acting like a new age limewire. I hate record companies as much as the next guy but I use torrents and youtube-dl. No need for the internet archive to be offering the service at such risk.
They hold a lot of important stuff, I just don't want open season to be declared on suing them. Pick your battles kind of moment.
They shouldn't have to do that. Owners of IP they don't publish it should lose their IP within a year.
