Has anyone tried to add up the track file size from the metadata dump?

In spotify_clean_track_files.sqlite3:

    SELECT count(*), sum(filesize_bytes) FROM track_files;

    255966403|15970064861274
That's only 14.5 TiB, nowhere near 300 TiB. What makes up the other 285 TiB of content?


That's curious and changes things pretty dramatically. It's a lot easier to host 15TB than 300. I wonder what's up here.
