Noob question: where can I download FLACs/music? (kbin.earth)

I've been building up my digital music library again after giving music streaming the boot. I was going to attempt to digitize my CD and vinyl collection, but I frankly don't have the time for all that. So I thought I might turn to file-sharing and download digital versions of my physical collection. I prefer FLAC or WAV if the former isn't available. Can you recommend good places to get started?

Not gonna lie, I'm considering paying for Deezer to move back to this.

You can automate downloads with Lidarr. I'm set up to download every song by every artist that Last.FM recommends.

Currently, I'm using Soularr, but it's really slow and not always FLAC and not always full albums and the metadata is not always perfect.

Ah, nice. I gotta do the reverse and check out Soularr a bit. I imagine my Deezer setup will eventually implode, so I'll need a fallback haha

At the very least, be sure to put your current library out on soulseek.
