Replacing TV and movie streaming services is pretty trivial, and typically one of the first projects for any new self-hoster, but music streaming services are a whole different beast. There’s a growing need to replace the likes of Spotify, but there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, and maintaining an on-disk music library will always be a lot of manual work. That being said, I’ve put together a stack that I’m happy with for now, and there was some interest in the full details, so I’ll try to slap together a tutorial here.

    That sounds like a good alternative for me. I didn’t use lidarr to pull in new releases, mainly to tag and organise the files on disk, I’d mostly import albums manually when I come across something I want. So I wanna drop an album in some import directory, get it tagged with listenbrainz data and placed in the right place. Is that achievable with beets?
