Seems strange. Anna's Archive makes their collection available for bulk download as torrent files, they shouldn't need to "cut a deal" for access to that. Just download the torrent and now you've got the whole collection available locally.
They do provide direct access to their books for business who are willing to pay.

Which, as I said, seems strange. Why don't those businesses just download the torrents?
Some businesses did in fact do just that.
Ah, low numbers of seeds. Must've just not wanted to wait.
Fucking hit and run lmao
