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?
Lidarr and Subsonic maybe, but I don’t have tested yet
Unfortunately, I have tested subsonic. And it’s nowhere near as good as it’s advertised. It’s amazing to have that available and I hope it improves significantly but in terms of convenience and ease of use, forget about it.
And let’s not even talk if you’re handling your own server and anything goes wrong (which is pretty much what you’re paying for with those terrible services like Spotify)
