Y'know most of us audiophiles are managing actual libraries.... but they're not mp3. Mines mostly flac.

It's been more than 25 years of accumulating mp3, editing and cleaning my libraries, upgrading to flac, etc. Now going strong at around 600gb of music.

How do you remote access it?

I have an mp3 library, but have never heard of Plex. What is that?

Plex.tv It's a free multimedia server that you can install on your computer and start streaming your own video & music to yourself or your family and friends when you share your server. I paid for the Lifetime license because it's worth it. I own a 36tb server at home and I shared my server to about 20 people.

Envy and jellyfish are other open-source solution that are also great to use.

I'm surprised more folks on here don't like FLAC.. it fits better 😉

[–] rengoku2@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You cant stream it on data connection without obliterating your data cap and battery.

You cant simply load FLACs onto your phone it kills the free storage in the blink of an eye. Try loading 1000 FLACs vs MP3s.

And moreover, there is a debatable gain or quality when you are on mobile with mobile gears/earphones.

MP3s fit in the middle of all restrictions.

I like FLACs, of course, but I can see why people just prefer MP3s

I just don't hear any difference between ~200kbps VBR mp3 and flac. If you manage a large library, 10x smaller matters a lot, it's faster to transfer, easier to share on the web, space still costs money.

Is there any piece of software that can help a degenerate like me fix my MP3 collection to not be such a fucking messy nightmare? Paid or free doesn't matter to me.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Mp3tag is great if you don't mind manually editing. I've used it plenty of times, specifically for OC audio

MP3 has been obsolete since 2002 when Vorbis got it's first stable version.

[–] pascal@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It made sense in 2002 when disk space was expensive. Today I shifted from Vorbis to FLAC.

MP3 isn't dead but smells funny. Today I manage a ton of OGM, AAC, FLAC and other formats.
