I’m want to move away from Spotify but my current Lidarr setup isn’t doing very well at finding music. Are there any torrent sites dedicated to music?

    Not a torrent site but Soulseek/Nictone+ is a very old school Limewire-style service that you can curate with friends lists and choosing what to share and not share.

    Orpheus is dedicated to music, and one other one which I forget the name of. It’s kind of interesting how music trackers were what made torrenting explore originally but not music trackers are often an afterthought.

        Soulseek is very easy to use. Been using it for over a year now. Not sure how it’s not more popular as I’ve been able to find lossless versions of just about everything. Highly recommend.

        My experience with Lidarr (tried it after they fixed their DB problem) has been pretty poor, and doesn’t seem to download music into album folders for some reason.

          Yeah, I also don’t think it’s great but don’t know of any alternative that I can sync up with Spotify. I need to make the transition as seamless as possible if the wife’s going to give up her Spotify.
