to play devil's advocate, what happens when your lossless audio files (which take up a fair amount of space) no longer all fit on your mobile device? Do you have software to rotate them out?

- neumann 4y agoKodi+yatse over vpn is an amazingly good and easy to setup Spotify+Netflix for your own collection. Stream or Download albums/movies from your home server to your phone from anywhere.
