LMS + Squeezelite would be my recommendation! Supports local music libraries, podcast subscriptions, last.fm, web radio, and streaming services! LMS would be the server which runs in the background, and Squeezelite would be the player software. Since LMS is a server, you can have other devices in your network use it too!

Also, I highly recommend the Material Skin. It’s not just gorgeous visually, but it adds so many extra useful UI features the stock skin doesn’t.

This is exciting! Can’t wait to kill my install by trying to upgrade!

I’m a huge fan of LMS (Lyrion Music Server, formerly Logitech Media Server, formerly Slimserver, formerly…)

Fantastic piece of software. The server can run on a first gen Raspberry Pi and handle 100k+ tracks like it’s nobody’s business

It’s fantastic. Can’t recommend it enough. The best part for me is that it’s on Fdroid

? I’ve got IPTV working fine on Libreelec (Linux) on 20.3

We don’t do that here

Found one refurbished on eBay. I’ll report when I get it as to the quality

I’m replacing a dead Latitude currently, it was a fun ride, but I’d like to replace it with something else

I went away for a few hours, wow, all the replies! Thanks all!

I ended up going with a refurbished T480s. Wanted something I could upgrade memory/storage on. The form factor and the metal case also sounded appealing. Should have it in a week.

While a bit expensive, the Fiio BTR5 sounds phenomenal over USB

Man, I miss being on r/thepack

My data stays with me. I support Musicbrainz itself plenty

I scrobble to a self-hosted maloja instance. No fear of your data ever disappearing if a service goes down!

Ram does not deserve such disrespect

Yup! Been using a 1TB iPod for almost a year, and I’ve never looked back
