My experience with Lidarr

As much as I like radarr, lidarr has some problems radarr doesn't. Some bands nowadays do not release albums and directly release singles on YouTube or Spotify, so the albums organization doesn't work that well anymore.

On top of that, the content you find in the trackers is very heterogeneous, entire albums as a single track, discographies as zip files, different file formats, single albums... and it seems to confuse lidarr all the time so it cannot figure out what is what.

What do you use for your music collections? How do you organize them?

Soulseeker for some excellent yo-ho-ho and honestly iTunes for management.

On one hand I can sorta see it for organizing. On the other I hated using it with my iPod touch.

I use it with my android.

You can just manually copy the library over once iTunes adds it, but if you use the DoubleTwist player, you can sync over smart playlists and such.

It's a pain in the ass for sure, but even still I haven't found a better music manager.
