Volumio - Multiroom audio service. You install the os on a pi and hook up some speakers. The basic streamer is free for local files on a single device at a time. I paid $200 for a lifetime pass a few years ago. That gets you multiroom synced audio like Sonos and lets you add in streaming services.
Qobuz - Music streaming service. Much higher quality than Spotify, no shitty MQA like Tidal. They will have articles diving into a genre, band or record label with links to notable albums. It's "station" playlists and similar artist recommendations are garbage but I'm more of an album person.
Fyi, Tidal dropped MQA in July and moved to using FLAC. https://www.headphonesty.com/2024/06/tidal-officially-dumps-mqa/ I like Qobuz too, and I support and encourage their mission in the streaming world. But personally I find more of my favourite artists are available on Tidal than on Qobuz. Unfortunately I find the tidal "station"-style playlists are also garbage. Nobody has a chance to effectively compete with Spotify's algorithm on that front.
I've never heard of Qobuz before but just signed up for the 30 day trial. Thank you!
I like Qobuz, but it's worth noting Tidal has discontinued their usage of MQA in favour of FLAC across the board.
Never heard of Qobuz. Been looking to replace yt music. Their algorithm is trash.
Ugh I miss play music. It was such a good service. YT music was a joke as a replacement.
