reworking the whole library, I had 1.5 TB of mp3s, but they were super messy organized. Sure, I could have gone through organizing it but still mp3s suck.
So I'm starting over with a FLAC only music library. I use Navidrome on a local server and with a Subsonic client on my phone I can choose to download certain songs or playlists to use when I'm away.
CD quality FLACs are the minimum for me. They are nineties technology and still most digital music isn't even close to that. I find it hilarious how Spotify is still serving mp3s.
Where do you get FLACs?
You rip your cds or buy direct from the artists (he says without suggesting you can easily find everything for free online)
This is the most ethical way of doing it. I respect it
