I really want to ditch spotify, but its just so convenient to be able to search and stream music on any device at a moments notice. Not to mention the fact that its integrated with a music player that can quickly queue up, or add to playlist a searched song. Is there any software (or collection of software) that can emulate the convenience of spotify?
I download all music using Nicotine+ which uses the soulseek protocol, you can find the weirdest of shit there, and I use Lollypop to play on my PC, when I want to listen to some on my phone and I don’t have wifi I just dump a couple albums there, if not I use NewPipe.
good thing about having shit local is that you got the .flac files and it sounds perfect, maybe spotify does this but Im sure theres a bit of quality loss
