The solution is to run your music streaming yourself -> https://www.navidrome.org/
One click install for those running Proxmox OS ->
https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/scripts?id=navidrome
The site you expose has no abilities to write or destroy any data, only read the music data from a harddrive so this is generally very safe to run from as far a cybersecurity perspective (but some general knowledge about port forward risks is recommended)
This is what I’m about to do.
I’m done expanding my music library at this point. I finished that shit like 10 years ago.
Oh, is that the solution?
Context and perspective matter of course but yes if people just stopped relying and paying for services which can be easily and cheaply hosted the subscription streaming model would just collaps.
There used to be excuses. A spare computer is expensive, they demand power, you need to know how. But times have changed. A discarded laptop can often be aquired for free. The software is all FOSS. (Free)
Preferences are of course personal but in mine the self hosted apps are often of a higher quality then the paid stuff.
I just have a (decentralized) synchronized music folder on all my devices (encoded with OPUS currently).
