Why Do You Pirate Music? (sopuli.xyz)

I recently set up Sonarr and Radarr on my home server and I'm loving it.

However, I don't get why you would ever use Lidarr. Why would you ever download music using torrents? You can use tools like spotdl and yt-dlp to download songs from YouTube music and Spotify, it's faster and more reliable; I have had some issues finding torrents of music from less-known artists.

To me it seems like it would be much better to have a tool like Lidarr or have support in Jellyseerr to download music from common streaming services.

What are your views on this?

That video is A ART

When I started driving and my friends or partners would be like “can I play a song I love on your nice sound system” and they pulled up YouTube (this woulda been like late 00s to mid 2010s) it LEGITIMATELY SOUNDED LIKE THAT TO ME.
