Spotify and several major record labels, including UMG, Sony, and Warner, secured a $322 million default judgment against the unknown operators of Anna’s Archive.

The shadow library failed to appear in court and briefly released millions of tracks that were scraped from Spotify via BitTorrent.

In addition to the monetary penalty, a permanent injunction required domain registrars and other parties to suspend the site’s domain names.
