Finding a good MusicBee alternative on linux. I just dual boot into windows whenever I need to convert FLACs and organize it. Otherwise I’m on Linux 99% of the time now.

Musicbee was the only thing keeping me from switching for years. Simply put, it’s the best music player and even better is that it’s open source.

1. P2p isn’t a must, especially after mullvad fiasco.

2. Look into Sonarr, Radarr, and jackett. Seriously, after months of being too lazy to set it up, I caved and am never going back. If you just want to stream torrents download stremio with the torrentio plugin.

3. Qbittorrent.

Gonna have to hard agree with this.

I’d look into Apple’s AAC format as it is the best compromise of space and quality currently.

I encode my FLACs to 256k vbr, which is high enough and saves a ton of space vompared to mp3.

Also I use musicbee to do this.
