• Bandcamp support is faltering – maybe you should download your music now

  It supports ALAC. There’s a handy app called XLD (X Lossless Decoder) that will convert from FLAC to ALAC (and probably back) in a couple clicks if you need it. Lossless means I don’t really need to care whether my music is in an equivalent format, but I will admit it’s a bit silly. https://tmkk.undo.jp/xld/index_e.html. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Audio encoding question

  I would be surprised if XLD cannot do what you want. Source: 11 months ago

• This error keeps showing up when I try to import a CD. Any reason for that or any advice?

  Please ignore the misinformation in this thread about CDs being too old to be ripped, and download XLD and follow this guide. Source: 11 months ago

• What is your favorite mac app that you just discover in first half of 2023?

  I don't have any OPUS files, but personally, I'm fine with MP3s, so typically, I just run songs through XLD. Source: 11 months ago

• Moving CDs to ext. HD on Studio

  Take a look at XLD, it supports lossless formats (flac, alac, wav, aiff) as well as standard compressed formats. It also checks online services for metadata and album art. I ripped a ton of CDs with it. Source: 11 months ago

Doppler for iPhone mentions (7)

• The day I canceled my Spotify subscription

  I use Doppler on Mac/iOS: https://brushedtype.co/doppler/ It's not perfect (adding and syncing music from Bandcamp could be smoother; it requires their Doppler Sync app to sync over Wi-Fi/AirDrop instead of syncing via cloud storage, which would be my preference). But the UX is decent, it supports playlists, and it just works offline. If you can see your music you can play it which — oddly — has not been my... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• What is your favorite mac app that you just discover in first half of 2023?

  It's either between Doppler, MediaMate, and Swish. I can't imagine using macOS without those. Source: 11 months ago

• What are your favourite apps?

  Doppler - Local music player which replaces Spotify and Apple Music. Better UI, more privacy friendly, many formats work (and if they don't, run it through XLD), etc. Source: about 1 year ago

• I don't want streaming music, I just want to stream my music

  If you're on macos, have you checked out the doppler music player[1]? Might be up your alley. I haven't used a streaming service in years and I free trialed doppler a month or so ago and I liked it I've been meaning to get into the audiophile hardware space and buying/ripping flac music but it's quite the endeavour 1. https://brushedtype.co/doppler/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• It Takes 128 Streams On Apple Music To Earn Just $1.

  These days I buy on Bandcamp and sync between my Mac and iPhone with Doppler. I mostly listen to metal and punk, and luckily that's almost always available on Bandcamp. Source: about 1 year ago
