I have over 4000 songs just in one playlist on my phone. I’ve never used a streaming app.
I try and find new music via Fediverse, Tiny Desk series, music acts from shows like: SNL, Tonight Show, etc. And of course I’ll check Billboard top charts once in a while.
I like streaming apps for discovering new music. I have over 10k songs on Plex/jellyfin. As I listen on Spotify, I download to there
10k is quite a lot if you (at leas somewhat) handpick them and download them individually. I currently have about 4k songs saved on my PC, but I dont know most of them due to the fact, that I download them in bulk, since I was able to get my hands on the entire discographies of two labels that I like. One had 3k songs sorted in 150 Albums across 15 years. The other label had 1k songs. Dont know how many albums those are, or from how many years, since I havent been able to index all of them in a database to check what metadata they have.
Maybe there’s more to it, but I really don’t get the last note about Tidal: Essentially, if you use Tidal, you should know the CEO is has a large ego and is a crypto bro.
I’m sure he’s very annoying, but I’m not inviting him to my house for dinner.
LATERALUS SPOTTED!! SPIRAL OUT!
