what format and quality do you guys save your music? in my case, i convert everything to 128kbps .OPUS cus' it's the same shit as .FLAC. storage is cheap but i have 100k music files that I want to listen to on my phone lol.

whatever you get from youtube idk

FLAC.
Just get a phone with an SD card and you won't have space issues..

>but i have 100k music files
And you don't regularly listen to almost all of it, which makes it all a waste of space. Delete the ones you don't listen to or don't like, and your problem will be solved.

Its 2025 there is no justification to use lossy audio codecs anymore. Lossy audio needs to be banned on pain of death.

I wouldn't go that far but people who convert mp3/aac to flac/wav should be shot
>>
>>107270818
There are numerous pieces of music that have been lost forever due to lossy audio. So much music only exists in lossy. Lossy is objectively a crime against humanity. And anyone who understands what lossy is and still uses it is deserving of the most horrific death possible. I can forgive those who use it in ignorance, but to know and still use it, no crime is greater.

I use opus on my phone because it saves space on my 64gb device (ik ik)

Most people who have small libraries won't understand.

So what's the problem? Modern phones have up to 1 TB of storage

simple as

FLAC at home
128kbps Opus on phone, which is overkill. 96kbps is transparent
>>
>>107270138
My PC (not including network storage) has about 70TB of storage, so lossless.

One thing I am missing since moving to Linux: AIMP

tend to grab music in lossless format, if possible.

for phone, opus 128kbps which is more than enough usually
>>
>>107270138
Opus 96, 128 if you're fancy. Better audio storage formats exist contrary to consumerist sunk cost delusions of lead-poisoned xennials and millenials with rose tinted glasses
>>
>>107270138
Flac for the library, cached transcodes to opus or mp3 (based on support) for streaming to clients.
>>
>>107270138
lossless: 256k opus
lossy for phone: 128k opus
