Why Do You Pirate Music?
Why Do You Pirate Music?
I recently set up Sonarr and Radarr on my home server and I'm loving it.
However, I don't get why you would ever use Lidarr. Why would you ever download music using torrents? You can use tools like spotdl and yt-dlp to download songs from YouTube music and Spotify, it's faster and more reliable; I have had some issues finding torrents of music from less-known artists.
To me it seems like it would be much better to have a tool like Lidarr or have support in Jellyseerr to download music from common streaming services.
What are your views on this?

Because fuck Lars Ulrich.
Hell, I wish my downloads took money directly from him. He sucks.
I wasn't even a metallica fan but i started downloading tracks in the days of yore just to delete them out of spite
What's the issue with him? Honest question, just want to know what's up
Metallica spearheaded the movement against the music sharing platform Napster back in the day. Lars Ulrich in general was a big opponent of music piracy. (Although, apparently he has since chilled out a bit).
He's also just not a good drummer.
I guess he's not that bad, all things considered. Just don't like the guy.
Thank you for explaining! I had no idea.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Convinced that napster was stealing all his moneys and pretty much cemented the idea that people pirating things means you've lost BILLIONS OF REVENUE as opposed to an indicator that you've got a supply chain or pricing problem.
I to this day still make it a point to download anything from them and I refuse to listen to it. If one of their songs comes on anything I'm streaming, I skip.
