🏴‍☠️ AHOY fellow pirates and happy new pirate year to all! ARRR! 🏴‍☠️

Welcome to the first edition of yearly scene releases stats for 2023. I've already posted this to the piracy subreddit and now here.

Are you guys interested in these kind of stats? I already provide some other (game related) reddit communitites with stats and thought it could be also interesting for more general statistics about all piracy sections. Please let me know if you have ideas about interesting stats, I'll see if I can make it happen.

Enjoy the numbers!


TOTAL SCENE RELEASES BY SECTION

I have a total of 77 sections in my PreDB. The sections in here are combined for a better overview. Numbers in brackets show the change to the values relative to the previous year.

total section
238.311 (-9.154) TV (HD)
171.114 (-2.408) MP3
56.891 (+36.613) FLAC
52.172 (+15.819) EBOOK
46.860 (-616) XXX
28.758 (+7.976) MOViES (HD)
26.297 (-6.938) TV (SD)
18.561 (+567) DOCU
15.287 (+8.014) ANiME
9.986 (-2.370) SPORTS

6.835 (+3.542) GAMES (PC)
4.415 (-6.701) ABOOK
3.369 (+123) GAMES (CONSOLE)
2.548 (-550) MViD
1.210 (-1500) BOOKWARE
47 (+37) OTHER

Total: 697.070 scene releases in 2023

So, biggest increases to 2022 would be FLAC music releases, EBOOK's, ANiME, GAMES (PC) and MOViES (HD). Huge losses on ABOOK's, BOOKWARE and TV (SD). The APPS section may be faulty for 2022, have to check the data.

ACCUMULATED RELEASE SIZE FOR 2023

From the 697.070 scene releases, 454.037 of them have file + size information.

They total to: 754.73 TB (754.729.230 MB) in 8.3 million files (8.280.197).

No idea about the size of the missing information, so the real value should be much higher.

I didn't know that there was an whole organization of pirates. That's cool.

You have a choice to make. You take the blue pill... the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill... you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.
