Ways to pirate music as convenient as Spotify? (lemy.lol)

The reason I gave up on MP3's and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I've been listening "Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds" song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I'm trying to find "Stremio" of the music world. Can someone assist?

Key features I'm looking for:

Synchronization between devices
Offline play
Playlist support
Both desktop and mobile apps
Wide music library (optional if I will upload music)
Lyrics (optional)

Update: thanks to everyone who shared their solutions 🙏

I was an early adopter of Jellyfin and love it - but personally prefer Navidrome for my music server. Granted, I haven't looked at the music capabilities of Jellyfin in a long while, because I've been running Navidrome.

Symphonium android client is my recommendation for that (and I believe it also works for Jellyfin) but there are others.

My pipeline is essentially as you describe though Lidarr --> nzbget --> Navidrome

I also use Navidrome and Symphonium, along with Wireguard.

Same, Navidrome, Lidarr, Symfonium and Nginx reverse proxy. Plus last.fm scrobbling.

But getting new music takes a while, I should probably try the OPS interview.

Plus last.fm scrobbling

Every app seems to offer this. Why do I want this? I feel like I've been wondering this for like 20 years, but have been too afraid to ask lol.

It's a music tracker + finder + social network. You can see how your taste changes over time. Personally my favorite feature is the weekly stats with a genre timeline.

Navidrome, symfonium, lidarr+soulseek, npm, and for scrobbling I use multi-scrobbler hooked into maloja.

I just set up navidrome after reading this, and I really like it, but it's an absolute pain to install on windows

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ah sorry! I have only run it from within Docker on Linux. BUT, I'm glad you got it working!

[–] TacoNissan 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Yeah, it comes as a command-line exe. you have to manually set it up as a service so it can autorun and have the right permissions. But I really do enjoy it so far

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Never heard of it, but it does look nice.

I'd recommend OP tries kicking up both for a bit and pointing them both at the same music collection to see which they prefer.
