  • I agree fully. I basically never download music anymore, because I can get all the music I can think of on Spotify for a few bucks a month.

    I recently started music pirating because I listen to a lot of genres and I want to shuffle them. If I use Spotify, I am limited to their shitty shuffler, but if I download my music offline, I can shuffle however I want. My favorite algorithm to shuffle my huge bunch of music is to shuffle them by genre. Now I get to listen to interesting music with full control over the algorithm used.

    Also, there are frequent power cuts in my area, so an offline library always proves useful. I also visit places where internet connections are not available.









  • I use Prowlarr + Radarr + Sonarr + Jellyfin.

    I have /data directory organised like this:

    /data
    ├── media
    │   ├── books
    │   ├── movies
    │   ├── music
    │   └── tv
    └── torrents
        ├── books
        ├── movies
        ├── music
        └── tv
    

    Files added from Sonarr goes to torrents/tv and that for Radarr torrents/movies. Once the torrent client has downloaded the files, Sonarr and Radarr hardlinks the needed files to media’s respective folders. I have set media/tv for shows and media/movies for movies on Jellyfin. Everything is automated, I love it.
