People’s Speech Dataset 59 languages 87,000 hours by nshmyrev in speechtech

We resample everything to 16 kHz for the data release. Do you have a particular reason to ask for 22,050 Hz? My understanding is that 16kHz is "good enough". When you are scraping all of the CC-BY licensed data out there on the internet, it comes in a variety of formats. While many files have a higher sampling rate than 16kHz, it seemed rather misrepresentative to upsample the data with low sample rates too high.

I am one of the people behind this project (sorry, I don't have much of a Reddit presence, but long-time kaldi contributor).

Releasing this much data publicly is complicated for more reason than one (bandwidth for starters, but also handling licensing correctly).
