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?
Soulseek via slskd on my NAS to fill in the missings from Lidarr works really well. Gluetun with a VPN and sharing everything as it grows
Other than file-sharing or xdcc, where you can search for FLAC,
squid.wtf
allows you to download FLACs from select providers.
I’ve been using lucida to download from Tidal. It works very well.
I use nicotine+ to download my music and it’s great! I can find almost everything I want to hear in flac. Maybe not the best choice for playlists but for downloading albumns is awesome
