Hi peoples!

I’m on Apple Music but I want to expand my setup with music hosting but I have no idea how to approach it. Right now I have nothing and know nothing haha. So if you had a guide or would like to share your setup that would be awesome :)

Everything from a player, through downloader, to organiser and whatever else is needed. I heard that lidarr works in Albums, which I usually don’t use. I’m a “I hear a song, I like it, I save it, forget the author or album” kind of person 😅

Or maybe it’s not worth it at all I don’t know haha

Thanks :)

    gonic as the streaming server, Lidarr for library management and some of the downloads, Sonixd/Tempo as desktop/mobile clients.

    Works alright for albums (downloads are a pain), probably won’t really work in your case though.

    Everything is running on a single-node k8s cluster (because infrastructure-as-code is awesome), but it’s probably overkill for most people. https://github.com/sibwaf/Infrastructure for reference if you’re interested (/selfhosted/charts - lidarr, gonic)

    Shameless self-plug: I’m working on a Subsonic-compatible server which wraps yt-dlp (i.e. allows downloading from YouTube/Bandcamp and then streams it). Seems like it should work for your case of handling single tracks. It’s still very much in progress (very-very slow progress) and really isn’t ready for use, but if anyone is interested in following the project: https://github.com/sibwaf/Tapesonic
