It's harder to find (legal) downloadable music anymore too. 7Digital has been pretty alright for me, but I just stopped bothering with Spotify and Pandora and such. Youtube used to be great for discovery until they started mega cracking down on adblock again.

How often people are just getting rug-pulled left and right by streaming services is ridiculous.

Is this some kind of sweet water joke, I'm too pirate to understand?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

You can just pirate the mp3s ( for legal reasons I definitely havent done this for the entirety of my song library

I only use Spotify for a couple of exclusive podcasts I like and maybe some comedy. I certainly wouldn't pay for a subscription since I don't listen to much music and I hate the user interface especially through Android Auto.

The only time I really listen to music is late at night in front of the PC and I have a music collection for that. It's amazing how cheap you can pick up old CDs these days second hand in car boot sales and similar. It's just cheaper to buy CDs and rip them rather than fork out 11 euros every month.

I still play physical CDs every day. Still buying them, although that is getting to be more difficult, sadly.

I have a nice Rotel CD player at home and a CD player in my vehicle. I got a great CD/DVD duplicator for $50 used so all those CDs in my truck are easily disposable copies of my originals that stay at home.

I should rip them all but that is a lot of work. I did rip many of them to 192 khz mp3s a while ago so that has been enough so far.

Streaming is nice but the fuckery will continue and they can miss me with that shit.

To this day I do my own personal MP3 mixes 😏

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

me but opus instead of mp3 and ViMusic instead of Spotify

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Managing a library now is easier than ever. Managing mp3s specifically is a very odd choice though

Meanwhile me still listen some songs locally (self host Jellyfin) because some songs that I listen are not available on Spotify :/

Thinking about to reencode my collection to opus but "too lazy" as my ripped collection are 320kbps mp3 to save space.

I wonder if I still have my Creative Nomad Jukebox somewhere... came out in 2000. Was the size and shape of a portable CD player so it fit in the same kind of cases. Took normal AA batteries. Had a 6 GB capacity, which was insane in 2000. I had a huge number of MP3s on it. Many radio dramas. I wish I still had them elsewhere.
