Basically title, YouTube music suggests the same songs over and over again.
I don’t want to maintain my own library of music, which is why I use streaming services.
DIY music libraries are you only option.
I don’t want to maintain my own library of music, which is why I use streaming services.
I also said I’d like to have an algorithm.
I converted my MP3 collection to files on my PC last summer, after getting sick of Spotify’s price increases. If you manage to find a DRM-Free music app I’d love to hear about it, but I’m confident none exist.
When I want to try something new I log on to Spotify’s web player using Brave browser (because it blocks ads and tracking), sample the stuff the app curated for me, and then use a Youtube-to-MP3 converter to download the files.
Sorry, I know that’s not the kind of info you’re looking for. I’m just pretty sure what you’re asking for isn’t a thing.
Ah, thanks then ❤️
I will give this a try
This isn’t exactly what you asked for, but I want to recommend somafm, which is an internet radio site. They have a bunch of different channels with different themes/styles.
This is a good option since you don’t want to maintain a library. Rather than a recommendation algorithm, the channels are intentionally curated by people, and occasionally live dj-ed.
You can use their web player, but they also provide stream links for any media player that can handle them. VLC can do that, or you can use a mobile app.
Thanks for the suggestion! Will give it a try tomorrow.
Sorry if I sound dense but when you say non drm what do you mean?
I have used Apple Music for years and not had any issues.
It’s defective by design
It stands for digital rights management. Apple Music has drm. I do recall back in the day that anything purchased on iTunes was pretty easy to strip the drm off of, but I don’t think that’s the case anymore.
How would you define a DRM-free online service? If you aren’t managing your own files, why would DRM free matter?
I scrobble to Last.fm for recommendations, but I’m not sure you can get DRM free without maintaining your own library.
I think I’ll have to keep using ytm
