Google not indexing CAArchive (or parts thereof)

[anon18945670]

Could this be related to this:

Internet Archive apparently has (far!) less items in their "coverartarchive" than what MB's stats report

If you look up all items in the “coverartarchive” collection at Internet Archive you end up with just over 1300 (1313 as of this writing), but MusicBrainz’s Cover Art statistics reports that 780,717 Releases (as of last update) should have cover art. This is a discrepancy of 779404 items/releases. Does anyone know what’s going on here? @bitmap?

@Bitmap

Yep, they’re removing the coverartarchive collection from their public search indexes because, as I was told, the results are causing confusion with their digitized CD results.
