Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried that, but the purchase is stuck at "Creation in progress". It wouldn't surprise me if new creations are being blocked while the new TLD registry is being setup.

Thanks for your sympathy; par-for-the-course with Freenom, though.

Mine certainly did, plus we supposedly had purchased the domain until 2030. NXDOMAIN today though! There's really no transparency about this, and I've no idea if my business has just been destroyed (or mortally wounded) overnight.

Hi OP, developer of Astiga here... can you get in touch about the inconsistent scrobbling? info@asti.ga . Regarding iOS - agree, you're left with any Subsonic compatible iOS app.

I don't really think limiting to one piece of music is really appropriate for an art form that can affect us on so many dimensions but... The Rite of Spring.

Shout-out for the Motorola Defy - I used to have one and it was a great form factor, almost an ideal size. Sadly mine bricked for reasons unknown.

I don't quite understand what you mean by "curate my favourite music" here. There are no buttons to add an artist, or album, or track... all I can see is a list of albums with links to listen. Is this just the "shareable

(Disclaimer: this mentions my commercial service). I run https://asti.ga/ which is kind of like TuneBox, but Web based. It supports the Subsonic protocol, so any Subsonic client app should work on your phone.

This is the crux of it. All software chooses what elements of the "spec" it supports. There are ways to do what you want, but whether those are useful depends on your use cases and specifically the other software (and hardware) yo

Kind of agree, but the obvious reason for doing it this way is so that you can support using multiple different players, or different users in some cases. Ideally a separate container for metadata, agreed by all, would be used but it takes

I appreciate the thought for the album listeners out there. But why is this better than a single FLAC with a CUE file? Have you thought about album-level metadata?
