Comment on ...So I Finally Quit Spotify
EngineerGaming@feddit.nl 10 months agoGood that it works. I use a free tier of a streaming service for discovery, but I cannot imagine not having my actual collection I listen to the most often depend on a streaming service. You’re locked into only using their player, cannot use a dumb mp3 player at all, can lose all your collection if you’re in a situation when you’re unable to pay, and also the tracks you like might be gone because of copyright shenanigans. The on-disk DRM-less collection is just FAR more comfortable.

I’m not locked into their player. Tidal integrates through Plex and I manage my music library between Tidal and local files there. And again, I still buy albums but we’ve both acknowledged we can’t buy all the music we would listen to.

Wait, you have all your collection local and DRM-less this way? Neat.

No, anything from Tidal is still DRM controlled but it integrates seemlessly with everything I have locally.
