  1. GNU FM

    Discontinued GNU FM is a music community platform

    Based on some light surfing, it appears there are two less commercial alternatives: ListenBrainz and libre.fm (the hosted version of GNU FM). An interested reader could peruse https://github.com/topics/scrobbler to find even more projects

    - https://listenbrainz.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html

    - https://libre.fm/popular-page.php and https://github.com/foocorp/gnu-fm which is shown as archived. Related to that, while digging into libre.fm I found https://github.com/foocorp/hacienda#why-now which claims that last.fm federates, but I wasn't able to find any further references to that

  4. mp3-master-list

    Creates a sortable and filterable list of MP3s including hashes, directory information, and ID3 data.

    Here is that exact solution I wrote for my house:

    https://github.com/prettydiff/mp3-master-list

    It creates a HTML playlist not from streaming media but from stored media on my home media server. I have expanded it to also support movies and television shows. It also includes an audio/video player to play the media directly in the browser, which bypasses all manners of restrictions imposed by iPhone.

    npm run build

    node c:\path\mp3-master-list\js\index.js “c:\my-music-path”
