Google play music merged into YouTube music.
I already had a Plex server so I just rolled.my.own music server.
And then with the emergence of plexamp... I don't need a streaming music service now.
Have they gotten better? I've not had great experience with PMS handling music, even when using PlexAmp, but I last tried maybe about a year ago.
Oh absolutely. Especially with Plex pass. Plexamp is a quality product.
My biggest pain points were that it seemed to do some kind of analysis (reading file information) on my library all the time, which wasn't good when I have it on a cloud drive. Guess I'll try it out again and hope they fixed all that :)
You can disable that, however, it’s helpful when having the system make automated mixes.
What I wish it had was something similar to Roon which would be a Spotify integration. If I search for something and I don’t have it in my personal library, let me just stream it from my streaming service subscription.
