So as the title suggests I’m looking to leave behind Spotify for many obvious reasons over the previous years.

I’m thinking that because of my fairly limited music library that I should just stick with an offline library. However I want the option to expand it as I find new music here and there.

I know that I can use things such as Jellyfin to organise a library on my PC, but are there good options to “sync” the library to my phone other than just simply drag and drop the media?

    Well, for starters you could start buying CDs again and then do your own FLAC rips from those.

        Ironically, nowadays, it’s easier to get the LP. I buy them directly at the concert, and they come with a bandcamp voucher so you can also download the album.

        For more popular band, you now get very nice albums fulls of goodies, which also feature a CD

        I get them from ebay. If you sort by lowest price + shipping first, you can pick up tons of music you’re looking for on the cheap. Just gotta be consistent in searching, as listings come and go all the time.

        Thrift shops, dedicated music stores if any still exist in your local area, and even niche online stores like Discogs, among other sellers.
