I have over 4000 songs just in one playlist on my phone. I’ve never used a streaming app.
I try and find new music via Fediverse, Tiny Desk series, music acts from shows like: SNL, Tonight Show, etc. And of course I’ll check Billboard top charts once in a while.

Just a couple on my subscription list. I’m sure there’s plenty others.

What about torrents or something? It used to be so big. And now I don't see a lot of music anymore. Everybody went to steaming service, it's awful.

Slsk, search for it. Best kept secret. Note that some bigger artists have their libraries blocked from search via dcma, so you will need to search by partial artist name or album name instead, but it’s voluminous. Musical library of Alexandria.

There’s definitely torrent sites.
Even a certain famous pirate still has a site.

Yeah true. I was mainly talking about music torrents. Which used to be big as well.
Of course there used to be limewire and what have you not as well in the past. Which is maybe not that popular anymore.TThere is frostwire as well.

Finding music is one thing. How to you get it to your phone as a file?

Download it and transfer it to your device?
If you know the artist and/or the song title you can simply download it via torrents, usernet or some collection on a website. Got Spotify? Even easier.

Personally, despite the hate for YT… maybe it works in FOSS replicants, I use a YouTube MP3 converter.
After I have several conversion downloads, I email them to myself and save to phone memory.

I like streaming apps for discovering new music. I have over 10k songs on Plex/jellyfin. As I listen on Spotify, I download to there

10k is quite a lot if you (at leas somewhat) handpick them and download them individually. I currently have about 4k songs saved on my PC, but I dont know most of them due to the fact, that I download them in bulk, since I was able to get my hands on the entire discographies of two labels that I like. One had 3k songs sorted in 150 Albums across 15 years. The other label had 1k songs. Dont know how many albums those are, or from how many years, since I havent been able to index all of them in a database to check what metadata they have.

For those that are streaming their own collection, I highly recommend scrobbling to ListenBrainz for discovery.
