To everyone in here saying they download entire discographies, great! I agree. But the follow up question is how do you even find out about new (to you) artists that you might like? I’ve cross referenced the library I have (about 27k tracks) with the “similar artists” sections of Spotify, last.fm, etc, and I feel like I’m just going around in circles. All of the similar artists are just similar to each other and I have all of it already. How do you branch out?

TIL I’m elitist and insufferable

We need to stop calling it “purchasing”

You could just pay $8.99 for one month, delete the data from the brokers, and cancel the plan

Yeah, performance is not an issue for me. I stream some Linux ISOs and so do a few friends. Pihole, photos backup, documents backup. That’s about it.

Dude, it was a joke. I’ve heard the advice a million times

Were you able to swap in a new one and copy everything back over?

I mean, I was bored at work yesterday so started browsing. This is more of a thought experiment than anything.

Yeah they’re reds. Is there a way I can check how many hours they have on them? 10,000 is just over a year. They’re a couple years old now.

I’m not too concerned about them failing, I can afford to replace one without notice and they’re mirrored. And backed up in some other easy stores.

Oh, I don’t need to back it up because I have two drives running in RAID.

😜

Yes

Have a Synology DS218+ with 2x 14TB in raid 1. So just 14TB total capacity one drive redundancy. I have over 500 movies a bunch of series and it’s like… 4tb full or something?

My home server is Skynet

Did this used to be iOS only?

I’m gonna hold off switching for as long as possible. This looks like it’s not even close to PlexAmp. I mostly use artist stations and the DJ features. This just looks like it only plays albums or manual playlist.

Does Jellyfin have a PlexAmp equivalent?

It wouldn’t be so bad if you could buy and actually own

Right. I mean, I looked into this a few years ago when I set it up and just accepted my fate

You should definitely set up pihole but I don’t think it’ll block ads on streaming apps unless I’m wrong and someone can point me to something that explains how I can set that up.

I have pihole and I still get ads when I stream from home
