I’m working on building a personal alternative to Spotify and YouTube Music and I’ve hit two roadblocks.
-
Genre labeling in my library is inconsistent and manually updating 2500+ MP3s isn’t feasible. I’ve tried using beets with the LastFM plugin in quiet mode but no luck. Any ideas?
-
Where can I bulk download diverse music catalogs? I’ve snagged some ‘top 90s/80s/hiphop/etc’ collections, but 2500 songs don’t go far.
What I miss about Spotify and YouTube Music is their ability to auto-play similar tunes based on my current selection. Any advice would be appreciated.
damn I just bit the bullet and am manually updating the metadata for my library of 5000 thousand songs, mostly cause I’m old enough that this was the way I did it before Spotify, so now I’m just going back to my old ways… hope you find a solution though, it’d be mighty helpful
