​We have Stremio for movies and TV, which works flawlessly by pulling from different sources (add-ons) including torrents into one clean UI. But when it comes to music, the options are either paying for Spotify/Tidal or dealing with clunky, manual setups.

I’ve seen apps like ViMusic or Innertune, but they are mostly just YouTube Music frontends. Soulseek is a p2p service and the usability is horrible.
I'm talking about a true, modular aggregator. That uses torrents and lossless databases.

Fwiw, soulseek's usability is not horrid. I have about 8500 albums, mostly downloaded from there and bandcamp. I also combined libraries with a few friends over the years, which is always fun to just bring over a hard drive and share.

Yes, it's more work but with things like Plexamp I have all the music I could ever want and it works wonderfully when remote, even does the whole "radio" suggested artists thing within my own library.

Another friend of mine has 38k albums. Sometimes I'll change the source to his and bop around.

What good is piracy unless you're amassing a huge server full of all your favorite media
