Title

I'm tired of spotify giving me random issues.

What's a good replacement for this?

I misread the title and thought you were asking for the best music for piracy. I was gonna suggest Alestorm.

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 40 points 1 year ago

The best piracy for music is digital piracy. Literal ship-based piracy is very inefficient when it comes to acquiring tunes.

I'm in favor, for sure. Still, those tend to already be public domain 🤷

The best piracy is the kind with a sword in your hand and a parrot on your shoulder.

https://rentry.org/firehawk52 This is really good for downloading lossless music

Deemix to DL all your music. And media servers like JellyFin/Emby/Plex to host the data. That's the only way to get the best Music Exp.

[-] neocamel@lemmy.studio 3 points 1 year ago

I was thinking about setting up a jellyfin server that could be publicly accessible from a domain I own. Something like jellyfin.neocamel.com, which would point to my jellyfin server on my home windows PC, but it sounds like that opens up some pretty serious security concerns.

[-] dutchkimble@lemy.lol 1 points 1 year ago

I think you can set up a cloudfare tunnel to alleviate security concerns and it seems like an easy setup

[-] TheMadnessKing@lemdro.id 1 points 1 year ago

I haven't touched that aspect so can't really comment on the security aspect. But if it's behind PWD and stuff, it should be good IG.

[-] xonigo@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

Download mp3 or flac from artists you like. Install jellyfin or plex on an old PC, laptop, or raspberry pi and store the music there. Install finamp or plexamp on your phone. And you got your own personal spotify that you can access from anywhere

[-] Fais@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Can I manage this from android?

[-] xonigo@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

You have to keep on the computer that is running jellyfin/plex server. Then as long as the server is running and everything is set up, you can access all of your own songs and playlists from the android app.

There are a ton of tutorials out there for setting up jellyfin or plex.

I like muffon for streaming. I select vk as my source which has all the weeb/jp/doujin music that I like. I also very often use youtube music (with revanced to give ad-free listening). There's really not a lot of good options out there for music if you listen to anything other than the most mainstream stuff.

[-] Pherenike@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Muffon is awesome, I just discovered it. I actually compared audio quality to Nuclear and Muffon always pulls tracks with higher bitrates and really you can even hear the difference. Recommended by me too!

[-] gamey@feddit.rocks 7 points 1 year ago

Soulseek using Nicotine+ is the best solution I found so far, if you are happy with worse quality you can alos get it from Youtube but on Soulseek you often find flac and mp3 to choose from, just make sure to redistribute a little too! ;)

[-] bogdugg@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

The "best", in my opinion, would be a private music tracker.

[-] Otome-chan@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

private music trackers never have anything I want to listen to tbh, and they're always way too hard to get credit for. kinda pointless.

[-] bogdugg@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah for sure, the actual answer is that the "best" is relative to your needs. But they work for me.

[-] rambos@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Its not actually pirating, but vimusic is free youtube music with no adds and it doesnt need account. Its amazing if you need it on phone only

[-] outer_spec@lemmy.studio 5 points 1 year ago

I just google “[name of song] free download” which works about 59% of the time

[-] And009@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

Difficult to find flacs or WAV that way

[-] kostel_thecreed@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

There's an app on the playstore called "datmusic". It's $6 or so and rips music from Deezer @ 320kbps to full on lossless FLAC. No subscription is needed unless you want to download an entire playlist.

It feels and looks like Spotify to me, just without the subscription part.

[-] hottari@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

I have found myself using this more often than Spotify. https://github.com/yne/dzr

[-] cheer@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

My two main sources are Soulseek and newalbumreleases dot net

[-] CorrodedCranium@leminal.space 3 points 1 year ago

It depends what you want. If you aren't very picky about quality and just want files locally it's relatively easy to find tools. If you want FLAC files, streaming, or some sort of algorithm it gets a bit more complicated.

[-] nueromancer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

There's so many telegram communities providing flacs from deezer, tidal and qobuz. Search for @flacrequestgroup for example.

[-] And009@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Had this same questions couple months ago and the best option I found was soulseek~~er~~.

But gonna check out this telegram group too

[-] Phantom52347@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Soulseek, and the android app - Seeker

[-] Hastur@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Spotube, Harmony, Vibe Music, all on Github, all for Android.

[-] Getallen@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago

Spotube has wierd quality issues

[-] Fais@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yea I tried spotuve with KY spotify Account to see how it grabs my Playlist and it wouldn't load. I'll try the others!

[-] HerbalGamer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Just here to salute the ongoing work of Shabinder od Soundbound after Spotiflyer went down.

Although sadly that's been fluctuating at the best of times.

[-] Zeroxxx@lemmy.my.id 2 points 1 year ago

Download your own MP3a or Flac and host it in your NAS wirh zerotier or tailscale.

[-] wasd4321@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Seal is a very good app to download audio from YouTube, you can get it on f-droid or GitHub

[-] Drm12@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

Blackhole ,y music

[-] ASH3S@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

If you have Android, Murglar is pretty good for downloading files, playlists, albums, etc from Deezer or SoundCloud

I just use 4K Video Downloader+ to download music from YouTube. The free version only allows you to download up to 30 videos/music tracks per day, but by buying a personal license or a pro license and activating the app with one of those licenses, then there is no download limit. Although it may not be recommended if you are an audiophile unless you don't have any qualms with lossy audio.

[-] the_lone_wolf@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

you don't need to use paid tools to download videos or audios from youtube. Try yt-dlp

[-] NaoPb@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I currently use myfreemp3juices.cc
