I'm self-hosting my own music server and I want to

  • add new music to it
  • buy it and thus reward the artists whose music I put on there (i.e. no piracy)
  • not deal with physical media (I'm not a collector, and I want to avoid plastic waste)
  • own the files; no DRM or similar bullshit
  • use a European vendor, or at least non-U.S.

I used to buy my music through Amazon, but I've cancelled my account in early 2025 (for obvious reasons) and I'm not going back. I'd love to hear your suggestions: what platforms do you know that fulfil the above criteria? And how do you get your music?

Audials (Romania, Germany) e.g. "Audials Play" offers legal recording of internet radio stations by capturing unencrypted audio streams for personal, non-commercial use, effectively acting as a digital recorder. It enables users to listen to and record thousands of stations, automatically splitting tracks, adding ID3 tags, and according to law, does not bypass copy protection.
