Download Your Music and Stream It, Product Idea 🎧️

  • Ever thought you could stream your songs offline?
  • Can you still download music? MP3, WAW?
  • Ever thought that there is a world outside Spotify?

Apparently answer to all these questions is YES

Stream your media?

I wrote a blog about nextcloud and having your own media streaming service. I stream the music and audiobooks that I buy.

Can you still download music? MP3, WAW?

There are a couple of websites you can do that, I know a few.

  1. audiobookstore for downloading audiobooks
    1. Also there is a hack on how to convert audiobooks from Amazon and remove DRM.
  2. bandcamp Here you can buy and download music, can you imagine?
    1. Also this is a better way to use music as most of the money from the purchase goes to the artist.
    2. Buying albums in most cases is much cheaper.

Ever thought that there is a world outside Spotify?

You know, streaming is not my thing, though I continue canceling and resubscribing to Spotify. But I like the idea of inheriting the media I purchased to my children.

All these products/companies someday die out or become evil corps and all your data is gone forever. Well, this is of course not for everyone, but I know few people who will agree.

This is a product Idea which I probably will not do. but who knows?

What if you set a budget, for buying music from Bandcamp, and the application fetches your favorite tracks for a month from Spotify and suggests buying them on a monthly basis so you recreate your digital collection without spending huge money at once.

It’s like a subscription but you own what you bought!

This is the idea, I know this is not mainstream, but it could be nice to have it for me, so someday I will quit streaming completely.
