Agree. Actually I’m feed quite feed up with Spotify, and this week decided to get a proper HiRes audio and buy music from places like BandCamp or the CD edition and ripping it.
I miss curating my collection and playlists. It seems that the convenience of having almost all music available in a couple of clicks is making the listening experience less valuable.
- iamacyborg 3y agoI did this 6 months ago. I’m now using a service called Roon to stream my local library, any other track I don’t own gets streamed from Tidal via Roon.
- kristiandupont 3y agoI know it's a hipster thing, but if you feel like this, consider getting a record player if you haven't. I still use Spotify for background music but when I cook or am in another situation where I want to appreciate the music, I put on a record and it feels a lot better. There are a number of psychological effects in play there, like the fact that I am forced to listen to the tracks in the set order, that I've made a commitment by purchasing the record and that it adds atmosphere to the room to have a visibly rotating disc.
- edu 3y agoYes, I own one already and I’m building my record collection slowly. Also the large artworks are wonderful.
- tekla 3y agoYou can just listen to albums and not be a diva about it.
- l72 3y agoThis is what I do. I have a solid vinyl and cassette collection and huge digital collection all from cd rips or flac (mostly from Bandcamp) I also have navidrome set up so I can easily stream it from anywhere (my server is internal + WireGuard to access it remotely)
