   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

• Jellyfin as a Spotify Alternative

  (Disclaimer: this relates to the commercial project I run, but it is directly answering the parent) It's not self hosted, more a middle-ground between rented Spotify and self hosted data sovereignty, but this is what we do at https://asti.ga . You store your music in some Internet-accessible storage, such as any S3 compatible endpoint, and Astiga connects and streams your library (and provides offline etc etc).

• Blackcandy: Self hosted music streaming server

  Huge shout out to astiga which I've used for a year and a half. It'll run a streaming service for you out of cloud storage (eg s3, but also stuff like dropbox or google drive). I'd love to self host but have a toddler and not much time, so astiga is a great "take my money and do it for me" kind of service! [0] https://asti.ga. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• I Don't Have Spotify

  Yes, downloading is important as even download sites can redact later - e.g. https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/70250-qobuz-may-be-removing-music-and-files-even-if-purchased/ Another source are good ol' CDs. If you know where to look you can get them cheap too. Specialist charity shops that specialise in records and CDs in student or wealthy areas are good, as are second hand stores online.

  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: about 3 years ago
