Some of these services don’t offer themselves in turkey (tidal)
Is there a way to get a list of all the songs I like on spotify for archival purposes? Not the file, just a list. Like a shopping list.
You can check out Soundiiz
If you are moving to deezer they will take over all your playlists. They have a third party service on teir website that does it. It moved thousands for me with minimal issues. A couple live tracks and very niche local sonfs missing. I would say easily 99.9% transfer accuracy and it listed the outliers.
The service works regardless of who you move to or from.
Can’t ungoogle myself this time. YT music has probably the best catalog of all and it’s easily moddable
Which one has the biggest selection and highest quality audio, ad-free for $0/mo?
I use YouTube Music ReVanced, and while the audio quality isn’t the highest (because it’s YouTube), you can’t beat the song selection. Especially when it’s free and ad-free.
You’re likely violating the YouTube terms of service and can be banned at any moment. Also you’re stealing from musicians. Lemmy has multiple piracy communities that can probably give you more options
If you’re paying for music, stay away from any music publisher that doesn’t give you the option of keeping a DRM-free copy for yourself that can be played back in perpetuity, unconditionally.
I tend to wear a special hat that allows me to consume music in any format or device I like.
and then go donate to, or purchase music directly from the artists that I like.
yar har har.
Qobuz rocks!
I tried them for a bit and really wanted to like them but their “modern” metal catalog, playlists, and discover-ability was so bad I had to begrudgingly go back to tidal.
A glance at this makes me happy to just keep playing my mp3s.
There are also Faircamp and Mirlo, if you are looking for even fairer and progressive alternatives.
I’m trying to get most of what I like on CD and then host a jellyfin server
Currently streaming out of my Nextcloud server. Its nice. Does that count?
Anything that can work with Android Auto?
Tidal does. Haven’t tried others.
Naspers is a South African multinational internet, technology and multimedia holding company headquartered in Cape Town… did you mean Napster…? Did you generate this with AI or something?
Why would the largest music streaming service in the world be in the “other” category and not the “Big Tech Incumbents”.
Yeh and the blurb for splotifry reads like an ad, with not a negative word to say about this exploitative monster.
I mean, the “To Note” section includes information about their worse practices. The whole infographic is such a nonsense mishmash.
No Qobuz on Linux afaik :(
I’d otherwise consider the switch
Though being part of a family plan, I’d either have to pay for it myself – an added cost to expenses – or somehow get whole family to move over.
I wonder also how they be with people living separately
I had no problem using Qobuz on Linux (firefox and chrome based browsers); unless you are mean you were expecting a separate app or something.
Tidal is owned by Block, the owners of Square, which is the biggest POS vendor in the US. If that’s not big tech I don’t know what is.
Part of the reason I just shifted to a fully self-hosted setup.
Left Spotify because of all the bullshit they pull, tried out Tidal because of the higher quality and higher artist pay, but even if it is a substantially better platform, its ownership is questionable to say the least.
I dusted off bandcamp and learned to use slskd to build a full local high quality library powered by a Navidrome instance.
