This used to be a really common service about 10-12 years ago. Amazon, Apple, etc, all offered 'digital lockers' where you could upload your songs and stream them. These are no longer popular, so not many services are doing this anymore. It's such a wasteland that Wikipedia has a page for closed services [1] A few small services like medialeap.com still exist, but it is anyone's guess how long they will stick around or how good they are. But I guess you could try that. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_online_music_lockers#Former_or_defunct_services https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_online_music_loc...

This doesn't appear to be mentioned in their Wikipedia history, but Spotify also started as a digital locker/music matching. You would install the client and point it to your iTunes library and it would build the online playlist from that. 4 years of Spotify pivots is missing from their[0] Wikipedia page (2006-2010). I signed up in 2007 and stopped using once I got annoyed with them removing songs from my playlist. They then pivoted to music streaming subscriptions, with the recording industry becoming a "partner". [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify#History https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify#History
