Blackcandy: Self hosted music streaming server

People who use this or something similar (Jellyfin, Navidrome, etc.), what do you use to easily add new music?

Ideally I'd like to automate this to the point where I can look up an album and it gets downloaded automatically, similar to how Overseerr[1] works for movies and series but without the dependency on Plex.

You have Lidarr[1] as an equivalent to Sonarr/Radarr etc. and there is a pending PR[2] for adding Lidarr support to Overseerr which also has a custom docker image to try.

I don't want to easily add music. I am not a hoarder. I carefully check anything new I add to the collection.

But you could use a Nicotine++ for that task easily. It will even auto search from the wish list periodically.

The "oficial" servarr[1] uses Radarr for movies, Sonarr for TV shows and Lidarr for music.

I use Funkwhale, which exposes a nice web UI for uploading new music. Saves me the hassle of manually adding music files to a server, and it also allows for a multi-user setup where users can keep some music to themselves.
