Hi! I am interested in getting a new app for playing music. Until now, I’ve been on the Spotify paid tier, but I hardly use it lately in order to justify keeping the subscription. I still have quite a few playlists that I would not like losing, though.
I’ve been looking around, and the only app I’ve found that’s very nice is BlackHole. However, after looking at it closer, I realized that it uses some API from India that only returns Indian music when you try to import/search. I had a good laugh on that one, after seeing all my imported playlists full of Bollywood music!
I continued my search, but I can’t really find something that allows you to import playlists from various services. SpoTube is nice, but it takes a long time to play songs (sometimes up to 1 minute or more after pressing the play button).
So, my question: What do you guys use to listen to music?
ViMusic and InnerTune are both clients for YouTube music on Android. I prefer Innertune’s interface, but it seems like ViMusic might have an import feature? Personally I stream my music collection from my Jellyfin server with Finamp.
I’d love to move to a Jellyfin server as well. I have everything ready, except a stable internet provider, haha.
Do you happen to integrate Lidarr into this? I am curious how seamless it is to add new songs with just a search.
I do use Lidarr! It pulls from the MusicBrainz database, so you can only really search and add tracks that were released as a single. My use-case is to use it to download albums and monitor new releases from my favourite artists, and it does a good job at that. I use https://github.com/JagandeepBrar/lunasea on my phone to add stuff to Lidarr, Sonarr, and Radarr.
