Streaming? CDs ? Cassettes? Reels? USB sticks? Mp3? Flac? Legal/illegal/Grauzone? What’s your favorite band? Why?

    I download the song once using yt-dlp, then I use Musicbrainz Picard to fetch song metadata like author, cover, title, year etc… Then I listen 100% offline in any mp3 player app.

    I send my songs encrypted to pCloud free tier (gpg) just to keep a backup somewhere else.

    In other words, not a single online service on earth know what I’m listening to.

      You might already know this, but yt-dlp has a flag (I believe its --embed-metadata) that will take the album cover, artist/album, etc. and embed it into the mp3. Obviously not as comprehensive as Picard, but might be useful for you!
