I use Radarr and Sonarr for my movies/shows, and Spotify for music, but I do know there’s another *arr app for that. The question is, is it worth setting up and how easy is it to discover new/similar music as opposed to Spotify, given that Spotify isn’t expensive at all. And how do you fellow crewmen go about it?

    I use lidarr along with last.fm to discover new artists, and then Plexamp as my music player. Plex automatically scrobbles what I listen to and last.fm feeds me recommendations.

    Since starting with lidarr a couple years ago my music library has grown from zero to nearly 3000 albums. 41k tracks.

      My setup is exactly the same, actually. I love last.fm and scrobbling, been doing it for 15 years probably.

      I was trying to say that Lidarr isn’t a silver bullet. There are lots of ways to discover music, but OP seems happy with Spotify.
