Is music piracy dying? (vlemmy.net)

Most of the discussion and sources of content talk about movies and series.

I've been recently looking for psy and techno music, finding FLAC or WAV with active seeders feels like striking gold. It's definitely been a while since I've looked for active torrent sites and it feels more barren than ever.

Edit: Thank you all for all that valuable information. The reddit group really wasn't this helpful and valued making fun over adding real use able knowledge.

Since Apple Music / Spotify I don’t find it necessary. Far more likely to pirate TV / movies because they’re spread out across so many different services and require so many different subscriptions.

Yeah except I use Spicetify on windows and some "premium unlocked" APK on android because the ads are (intentionally) annoying as hell

I'd recommend trying out XManager so you don't have to download Spotify apks from shady websites. I don't use Spotify so I don't know how often it updates, but I've heard good things about it.

thanks for the suggestion!

Same. I would love for someone to create a real debrid - stremio equivalent for music instead of video.

I am working on just the thing! Hopefully will manage to have some sort of music suggestion embedded into it as well without the need of Spotify or whatever algorithm people use. Currently working on making it accessible for people to export their libraries from whatever streaming service they're using.
