You must have one massive storage server rack. Not to mention an insanely capable internet line, like commercial fiber maybe?

It doesn't mention how long it took to download the information...

A 10-15mb/s connection should let you do it over about 2.8 years... (assuming you can sustain a 1MB/s download speed).

To pay respect to pirate day Google would have to divert critical resources from their war on Christmas.
