The reason I gave up on MP3’s and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I’ve been listening “Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds” song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I’m trying to find “Stremio” of the music world. Can someone assist?
Key features I’m looking for:
- Synchronization between devices
- Offline play
- Playlist support
- Both desktop and mobile apps
- Wide music library (optional if I will upload music)
- Lyrics (optional)
Update: thanks to everyone who shared their solutions 🙏
I think a mixture of Jellyfin and Lidarr are what you’re looking for, but I haven’t tried out Lidarr personally. If it’s as good as Sonarr then it probably works well.
I was an early adopter of Jellyfin and love it - but personally prefer Navidrome for my music server. Granted, I haven’t looked at the music capabilities of Jellyfin in a long while, because I’ve been running Navidrome.
Symphonium android client is my recommendation for that (and I believe it also works for Jellyfin) but there are others.
My pipeline is essentially as you describe though Lidarr –> nzbget –> Navidrome
I also use Navidrome and Symphonium, along with Wireguard.
Same, Navidrome, Lidarr, Symfonium and Nginx reverse proxy. Plus last.fm scrobbling.
But getting new music takes a while, I should probably try the OPS interview.
Every app seems to offer this. Why do I want this? I feel like I’ve been wondering this for like 20 years, but have been too afraid to ask lol.
It’s a music tracker + finder + social network. You can see how your taste changes over time. Personally my favorite feature is the weekly stats with a genre timeline.
Thanks!
For new music suggestions
Thanks!
I just set up navidrome after reading this, and I really like it, but it’s an absolute pain to install on windows
Ah sorry! I have only run it from within Docker on Linux. BUT, I’m glad you got it working!
Yeah, it comes as a command-line exe. you have to manually set it up as a service so it can autorun and have the right permissions. But I really do enjoy it so far

I was about to move from Plex to Emby when the whole controversy erupted, and I waited excitedly for it to be ready.
Switched as soon as it was viable and have not regretted it one time.

Yet, that’s the exact opposite of Stremio for the music world. The point of Stremio is that you do not queue stuff, download it, save it all to your hard drive and all.
I checked out Lidarr and it only supports usenet and bittorrent. Unfortunately it won’t work for “local” music I think.
What do you mean “local”? Lidarr is not a player. It looks at your already existing music files and pulls any missing albums from the list of artist you already have.
Wrong word. I meant I’m from a 3rd world country and the music from my country can’t be found on public indexers. Not a native speaker 🤷♂️
