  • Storage is cheap, and music (even in FLAC format) is small. You can fit tens of thousands of songs into a terabyte.

    I download anything and everything. An artist I enjoy? Entire discography. I've only heard one song? Entire discography--there may be more I might enjoy! An artist in a genre I like but I've never heard? Entire discography.

    I'm at over 125k songs, and I still feel like my collection is a sliver. I eventually want to reach 1m songs and truly become my own Spotify. Finding songs I've never heard before and that I end up loving in my own collection is a joy I can't describe.

  • I went away for a few hours, wow, all the replies! Thanks all!

    I ended up going with a refurbished T480s. Wanted something I could upgrade memory/storage on. The form factor and the metal case also sounded appealing. Should have it in a week.

  • This man has changed my life. I got into him in 2022. I finally got back into my music collection again. I bought a modded iPod to keep my collection with me all the time. I bought myself a pair of HD58Xs, and it's like I'm rediscovering my favorite songs again. Wade, you're a treasure. Thank you for helping me love music again.

  • For my pi, PC, and phone, I use Squeezelite. For the pi specifically, piCorePlayer is the OS that I use to run Squeezelite

    For the pi, and DAC will do. I personally use a Hifiberry DAC which connects via the GPIO, but any USB DAC will do the job

  • Logitech media server, every day of the week. Despite its name, it is open source and in the hands of the community. Then, with cdrummond's Material Skin and LMS Android Wrapper, it's next level good. I can't ever imagine going back

    Edit: if hosting the server on a RPI, check out piCorePlayer. It can host your server and also serve as a player simultaneously
