I’ve been on Tidal for years, but it’s frustrating to use for lots of reasons (they only pay their artists slightly better than Spotify, streaming services are flaky, works poorly with my DLNA home speakers). I’m looking for something I can selfhost with the following features, and I would appreciate any suggestions in this direction:
- integrates with downloading services (nzbget and qbittorrent; or better yet prowlarr)
- has a suggestions/radio/mix feature, or integrates well with something that does. I currently use jellyseerr for other kinds of media, so something in that vein.
- has a mobile app which lets me download all the tracks I want, or integrates with one that does. Big bonus points if the mobile app can play to DLNA speakers.
A bit about my lab:
- Proxmox-based, lots of VMs and containers on 2 different cluster nodes. Lots of underprovisioned RAM in the cluster. Nodes run Fedora and I’m partial to quadlets, but I can convert anything to a quadlet if I need to.
- Airvpn port tunneling is available to me.
TIA!

I love Plex, but Plexamp leaves a lot to be desired. In my use case, especially for folks with bad mobile service and/or spotty wifi or folks who don’t want to be hitting their servers as frequently. I just want a good UX for downloaded music off my server.
Deemix is a good way to build up your local cache from Deezer, at which point you can serve it locally.
It will mess with artist renumeration though (which seems important to you), so you might want to find another way to compensate your favourite artists.
