  • I’ve noticed that too and try that also. Sometimes the reader does not find anything, but adding /rss.xml or /feed/ or something manually to the link does work at times. The inconsistency is also a problem. But some blogs just do not have such a functionality at all, or is not tested (wrong dates, therefore unusable). Its often sometimes an afterthought and inconsistent.




  • Wasn’t the problem that Internet Archive lend more digital copies at the same time, as they had physical representations? I know this was the big topic. Probably the reason why the publishers could push this hard. So I’m a bit surprised that they have to “remove” all requested books. Are they not allowed to lend at max one digital copy for each physical copy they have?








  • Thanks for the update. In my recent research and backing up stuff, there was numerous content that are no longer available. But the entries are there, only the files are not. I think some files appeared back at later time. My assumption was most data is coming back slowly from a backup, if they have any. Torrent and metadata files are generated automatically. That means if they are deleted, then they would be rebuild after some time, I assume. There is so much data, I have no idea how long this would take…

    I will keep looking at some files again and again, to see if they come back. Otherwise we lost a lot of data and history.
