I didn't know about it until a few days ago somehow (I'm kinda getting back into sailing at the moment after a long break), and I can confirm it's great and easy to get into. Has loads of flac too even if I prefer to stick to 320kbps MP3.
I barely use it atm, because of telegram deezer bot solutions. But if you're looking for specific things you can't find on the other platforms it's quite nice.
I prefer using Deemix with a deezer Hi-Fi ARL. Has an amazing docker container which I simply sync to a Navidrome instance.
You pay for the hi-fi subscription or there's a way to obtain a free hi-fi ARL?
I don't understand any word after ARL. Can you elaborate?
For me it's just chill, cause I can also just paste Spotify playlists into the telegram bot chat.
Basically like a login token without sharing email or password.
I know what an ARL is, but I don't get the rest
Oh, my bad. So, basically I use a docker image of Deemix on my server, which in very simple terms is basically a virtualized container on my server which hosts Deemix, the Deezer downloader. Then, I also have Navidrome on docker, which is a self-hosted music player, sort of like Spotify but with your downloaded music.
Does that make sense? If you're having trouble with understanding docker/containers just google it, I'm not the best at explaining it 😅

I 2nd this
Soulseek and then set the search filter to only .flac
Redacted and Orpheus are good private general music trackers with loads of FLACs. Join by interview or getting an invite.
Orpheus is good. I used to have an account but it got disabled because I wasnt using it as much as I thought I would. Great tracker. They do a lot to make sure you can keep your ratio positive.
Too add on to this, many private trackers will not disable your account for inactivity if you reach a certain user class or make a one time donation (including OPS).
Plus reaching out to the staff on IRC is a good way to have an account re-enabled if it does get disabled.
Nicotine+ (Soulseek)
If you're looking for rock/metal then en.metal-tracker.com usually has lots of flac rips.
Metal tracker is the best around. Now if only I could get a signup confirmation email to go through.
A $15 deezer subscription will last you a month and you can download as much flac quality tracks as you want with deezloader or deemix. They don't have everything but they have a lot.
Getting a tidal trial and using tidal downloader would be better imo. In my experience you can get multiple trials even with the same CC when using different email address, have done it 4+ times with the same CC.
Deemix with a free trial of Deezer, I've downloaded 2,000 albums this week.
Are you just mass downloading and sorting later? Or actually archiving the lot
I was replacing a specific library, from FLAC down to 320 for more seamless remote streaming.
Deemix has good folder sorting and naming in the settings.
That's cool. Just interested...2000 albums, that's a nice collection I'm sure! Was expecting some obscure oversized collection of Mongolian throat metal lol
There is a really good torrent on TL that has just about every version of every song they played up until 2016. I’ll admit, it is a bit overwhelming and ~300GB in size. Look for:
ACDC - Collection 1978-2016 [273 ALBUMS] FLAC
Yeah that's quite big. I'll look into it, hopefully it's freeleech.
Search: "tidal-dl GitHub".
I think they have a Spotify version linked as well.
That may save to the FLAC format but is it going to be actual FLAC quality?
You may need a premium account for FLAC. But from what I can tell by reading the code in the repo, it does infact download in lossless FLAC format.
Otherwise it looks like you can download the free-tier quality by choosing that in the settings.
Soulseek via Nicotine+, you can filter for file type and bitrate as well as avoid those assholes who lock all their files for trading.
This! I'm rebuilding my collection right now so its great to just copy whole chunks of other people's libraries.
Seems like this question gets asked every week, and every time this is my answer.
Rutracker maybe 🤔
- soulseek
- rutracker
- Usenet
- deezloader or tidal-dl
- hd24net (you'll need a mega account)
R/Rip requests used to be a good source before it got shut down.
Has the deezer docker webgui stopped working for others? Ive heard cli still works but cant find any guides. I dont use the bots as i usually grab the discog for an artist
I meant deemix
Still working fine for me, it'll be a sad day when it goes
