All this argument proves is that model it doesn't contain lossless full size byte perfect copies of all the image. And that's assuming all those 100GB of are images are unique with no common data. Copying 2% of those images or maybe 8% at 50% width would still be a problem.Just the difference between high and low quality JPG compression can easily make 10x size difference. You can start to see visible artifacts at that compression levels, but I wouldn't try to convince a movie studio that badly compressed version of their movie doesn't count as copyright infringement.

But that is exactly how copyright law works. If you copy the first 10000 bytes of a steven king book and compress it with zip and distribute it, there is a good chance you would lose the lawsuit if sued. If on the other hand you copy the first, middle, and last byte of a Steven King book and share those three bytes with someone you would win a copyright lawsuit, because those three bytes are not unique enough to be copyrighted.
