Since the Plex announcement that their integration with tidal is ending, I'm considering what my options are. I'm aware the the *arrs but is there anything that will recommend music?

What do all you die hard pirates do to discover new bands?

Can you clarify what the plex relationship has to do with this? I use plex and Tidal and always thought it was a little weird that I could access my plex account through plex app or Tidal app. I still think Tidal has some of the best algorithms for finding new / new to me music. I'm very disappointed that most AI engines seem to suck at good music recommendations ; I thought this might be one meaningful thing I could use them for.

Sure!

I used the integration to fill in the gaps I have in my personal collection. With tidal, I could start playing my own music and plexamp would just drop in some new songs for me.

It would create some playlists based on what I listened to, which again helped to discover new music.

I could just start using tidal, but that means turning my back on my personal collection. Or I could give up tidal, but that means losing the recommendations.

I'm asking here for help with the latter

I see. Now I'm kinda bummed I never took advantage of that option to mix personal collection with the Tidal Playlists - did not know it did that.

A quick search turned up tunemymusic.com which let's you upload a m3u Playlist to Tidal. This might be a good solution. I'll have to play with it myself later.

My gf used that when she migrated from Spotify to tidal. Worked quite well for that, but I'm not sure how it can work for recommendations though

Once you have Playlist in Tidal, Tidal will make recs just like it was before
