The reason I gave up on MP3's and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I've been listening "Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds" song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I'm trying to find "Stremio" of the music world. Can someone assist?

Key features I'm looking for:

  • Synchronization between devices
  • Offline play
  • Playlist support
  • Both desktop and mobile apps
  • Wide music library (optional if I will upload music)
  • Lyrics (optional)

Update: thanks to everyone who shared their solutions 🙏

Can you even buy DRM free music these days?

yeah not sure. are there ways to rip a drm physical album to audio file?

There are ways to rip physicsl media but they break the encryption which is 'illegal'.

I meant more just having control of the actual files when buying from places like Amazon or ITunes rather than just being given library access to the songs for so long until that company loses the license and deletes them from your library.

On bandcamp! If I want to support artists, this is the site I always go to. And yt-dlp works also great on bandcamp when I'm not feeling so generous ;)
