I have 49 gb of music and at the moment i just sync it between my devices with syncthing. But i think it will be better if i stream it, as the storage on my phone is limited.
Which streaming server do you recommend?
I saw nextcloud music, but i have the feeling it’s half backed and it will just clog my nextcloud install. Or supysonic? Ampache?
MALP and myMPD both honor the ID3-embedded art. yes, and I believe those take precedence over pulling from a remote API.
A lot of my music is old CD rips without any embedded images, and the ones that do have them are often incorrect from trying to embed them a long time ago. (e.g. half my music from the late 90s all have Silverchair’s Freak Show album cover as the embedded artwork)
TBH, I don’t really pay attention to the album art that much. I’ve lived without it long enough, so for me, it’s nice when it works and is correct, but I don’t really sweat it if not.
