Checking it out. I don't think it's directly related to my question, so I edited my post, but this seems cool.

I've been using newsgroups for video downloads for quite a while. The Arr suite is great for this. On the same note, I tend to find a good deal of music with Lidarr and my news server, but not everything. Notably, classic rock and older albums are more obscure. I supplement this with SoulSeek, but that's got its own issues.

What other options might be available that I'm probably overlooking?

Edit: To clarify - I'm trying to find other sources or options for finding the music that's more difficult to get from the sources I mentioned.

How much are link aggregator platforms struggling with the quality of the "general internet"? in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml

Neal Stephenson predicted this (of course). Google, reddit, and others in the cohort are effectively 'shallow web,' easily searchable and manipulated by SEO. As such, you get 10-15 sites with all the same content, reducing the quality of your searches and the overall quality of web content.

It's an effort to get clicks and monetize.

There's no coming back from it.
