I have tried A LOT of different music players over the years on Linux and the amount of ones that do not offer a single easy way to find a given album by a given artist is truly maddening.

I have recently landed on Tauon which has a pretty particular UI that is pretty unlike most others, but after some getting used to worked well for me. Audacious is mostly fine as well, but at some point I did not want to use it anymore because it would just stop responding to MPRIS events too often

For remote playing I have been really enamoured with Navidrome (in combination with Symfonium) lately. It's not super pretty, but it really has the best organization of albums I have seen so far and I kinda just dont use it for local files, because I dont want to do everything in the browser...

As per usual: Good job of extrapolating american circumstances to the rest of the world

Even if he could... maybe he should just use the paid option with enhanced quality, especially if he starts comparing the thing to Tidal

To anyone complaining about country restrictions:

Selling books is actually quite the complicated matter in some countries. At least in Germany you are not allowed to sell a book at a price of your choice (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_book_price_agreement)

It can be pretty fucking annoying to have these laws in place (they do have their merits, but... that's a completely different debate), but I can understand Amazon not having worked out all the legal issues to go worldwide with this

Depends on country. Laws for selling books can actually get quite complicated (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_book_price_agreement)

Isn't that what Titanium is selling? Not that I have ever tried it

Completely agree. Dwarf Therapist kinda shows how you can improve the UI without dumbing the game in itself down

It's also hilariously outdated, to the point that the game had a whole dimension less than it does now.

Still a great read though

Yup, credit cards are not really a thing in germany
