Sure but if the purpose of the dump is musical archive, then the music should be stored in an archival format, not a lossy one.

    They are archiving what they could get from Spotify and in this case what they could get was encoded in a lossy format to begin with.

    It doesn't get any "more" lossy over time just being stored as an .ogg
