I'd love to leave streaming services and roll my own server, but I rely on things like the Release Radar and song radios for discovery and just haven't been able to find a self-hosted solution for that.
I don't want to have to plan out the music I'm going to listen to, I just want to dive in.
I use the Spotify data via Every Noise at Once (https://everynoise.com/research.cgi?mode=name&%3Bname=) to gather band suggestions, but it is an annoying amount of work compared to having a script that sees all of my music and makes a playlist of 20+ songs using that data for me. Have not found a solution for that.
Roughly a year ago, I moved from Spotify Premium APK to using a local music library—Symfonium on my phone and Rhythmbox on my PC. I haven’t regretted it for a second.
There’s something really fulfilling about building a personal collection that’s yours to keep permanently.
Definitely recommend giving it a try!
Spotify is garbage. You pay them to basically pirate unlimited music (they pay table scraps). They have no values or integrity, but they do have a greedy business model.
I buy albums off bandcamp instead. Or from the artist's site directly.
Honestly it's a shame that most good music pirating sites have gone to the shitter, literally the only way to actually pirate and own music I could find via searching vigorously was through youtube to MP3 converters.
