   My HUGE library is so organized now!

   Love this product and the way it interfaces with my personal library of music. I have thousands of hours of opera -- and a lot of it is not available anywhere else (because it is personal bootlegs). I needed a way to organize by genre, by album, by singer, and by composer, and then stream from my desktop browser at work and from my phone. Astiga checks all the boxes.

   👍 Pros:    Search within a library|Multiple platforms|Personalized content|No need to install amazon music app

   My own personal music streamer in hi-resolution sound

   This app liberated my music from global companies and put it back under my own control and personalisation. I'm not dependent on their storage or app changes that restrict how I play my own music. It also works across devices and means my music isn't stuck on one device or place. For the small cost, I can stream losslessly wherever I am with perfect sound quality. I have over 130,000 tracks in my library and it works wonderfully, with my own genres, playlists, starred selections and app appearance.

   🏁 Competitors: None

   👍 Pros:    Cloud based music|Lossless music|Music streaming

   👎 Cons:    None

• Music Streaming Server that works with folders ?

  It depends how self-hosted you want to be, but if your files are webdav accessible to the Internet you could use https://asti.ga/ - one of the browsing views is a folder based one. Source: 10 months ago

• Stream music from OneDrive on PC?

  Hi, I run a service called Astiga that allows you to do this. Take a look: https://asti.ga/. Source: 10 months ago

• Tell HN: Stripe killed my music locker service, so I'm open sourcing it

  Update: I have reached out to the nice Stripe employee who volunteered their email, let's see what happens. It's been pointed out a few times that my marketing says the site won't die, and me killing it would be very ironic. This is 100% true, and I have decided to leave the site up even if Stripe decides to ultimately close my account. Luckily, our infrastructure costs are very low (<$5 month currently).

• play.asti.ga not reachable anymore?

  Good news: https://asti.ga is now operational. I've got to make some tweaks to get the web app working again, and that will mean it will become unavailable from https://astiga.audio once more - sorry about that. Source: 11 months ago

• .ga domains are no longer managed by Freenom, and all previously registered domains will be deleted

  Seems to be working now though: https://asti.ga. Source: 11 months ago

• Any music streaming app that works with real debrid?

  You're gonna love this. Check out http://ibroadcast.com You'll be surprised how good the free version is. And you can link last.fm and scrobble everything you play out of the box, no tinkering needed. Hope this helps! Source: 5 months ago

• The failure of Amazon's Alexa shows Microsoft was right to kill Cortana

  iBroadcast. They have a sub. I began migrating my collection a full year (off and on; busy life) before the latest nerf / crippling of Prime Music. Because Prime Music frankly sucked before and only sucks worse now. Source: over 1 year ago

• For those that quit Amazon music, what kind of utility or limitations did your echo speakers have afterwards?

  I set up an old-fashioned MP3 library with iBroadcast. It's not very Echo compatible, because Amazon won't let anyone but big players paying huge kickbacks into their API far enough. There is a skill, but it's clunky, thanks to Amazon. Source: over 1 year ago

• What app is everyone using for music streaming these days?

  Https://ibroadcast.com/, my music uploaded by myself (I have stopped following popular music). Source: about 2 years ago
