FuckApple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Tidal….Fuck them all. Where can I download music with metadata in a reasonable resolution per space ratio?I have .FLAC files, but my library is going to occupy 100GB, that’s not cool. Is there any source to download in 256kbps with metadata?
bandcamp
or download the flacs, convert them to whatever the fuck you want
>>101243660>2024>still "downloads" musicCreate your own lmao
>>101243660soulseek. Oh wait, not available on iphone? lol
>>101243660search firehawk52 guide on your favorite search engine and then use qobuz downloader to download 320kbps mp3 which should be good enough for 99% of the population including you
>>101243660SlskTelegram or Discord bots that rip from those servicesRutracker, private trackers
>>101243660100gb too much? take the locally hosted streaming pill>plex+plexamp>jellyfin>navidrome/ampache/icecast (?)/idk google it lol
>>101243660Aww, 100GB? Looks like baby's first music library. But DESU, don't throw your FLACs away just yet. If you're honestly looking into building a high quality offline music library, you want to keep a lossless copy for transcoding. Currently, the best lossy codec is Opus, where 128kbps is roughly equivalent to 256kbit MP3.Don't look into reducing the quality of your archive - increase your disk space instead.

SoulSeek? I share my (largely FLAC) collection on there.
