   Apple have screwed up my personal local collection of music for the last time.

   Anyone have recommendations for open source iTunes like application for osx and Linux that won’t auto-fuck-up my content with “Apple style magical” metadata screw ups?

     @HSTG @mattwilcox yt often blocks vpn ip space. yt-dlp can extract audio.

     yt-dlp -t mp3 <video link>

     also you can do yt-dlp -F <video link> to see what formats are available. the -f id where id is the format identifier you want

     @mattwilcox Don't forget your VPN! Nobody has to know who you are.

     if you invite me into your house, and i smash some of your records, that is a prosecutable crime
     if you invite a trillion dollar corpo into your digital space, and they smash some of your records, that's totally fine

     Hilariously - on iOS - I redownloaded Doppler, and had it import the stuff in Apple Music. It imported my library: and it is displaying my albums properly as far as I can tell.

     Though I am still left with missing tracks from albums that Apple FUCKING DELETED. Because Apple didn’t have rights for them. My own, ripped from my CDs tracks. That I no longer have my CDs of. Or even a drive to rip CDs from.

     Assholes.
