Project mention: Mobile Ad Blocker Will No Longer Stop YouTube's Ads | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-16Just use NewPipe. It's just a better Youtube client even if it had ads.

Project mention: Bandcamp's Entire Union Bargaining Team Was Laid Off | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-19One solution to this, albeit a fairly technical one, can be found here: https://github.com/Ezwen/bandcamp-collection-downloader . I've been using it for years to download my library in FLAC format.
There are also a bunch of GUI tools that claim to download libraries (search for "bandcamp downloader") but I haven't used any of them.
Project mention: Bandcamp support is faltering – maybe you should download your music now | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-24When Bandcamp was sold a few weeks back I built this to download my somewhat extensive music library without having to manually download and unzip hundreds of ZIP files:

May be useful to anyone else in this thread who wants to do the same.
The article might describe a common scenario, but there are plenty of outliers. I hardly listen to music I liked in my teens and early twenties. I love discovering new music.
Many comments here are very insightful and discuss phenomena like high music diversity, music proliferation and easy of producing music, and automated recommendations.
One thing that has been occupying me is that curation is still harder than I'd like when using streaming tools like Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Tidal. Pandora had good roots with its music genome project, and have built on that. (I can't use it without a VPN since they discontinued supporting the country I mostly live in). It's probably a function of how I consume my music today - no longer desk-bound at work, but on the go, so iPhone (and Apple Watch) are primary tools. Being able to select/skip/preview/tune what I'm listening to is nowhere near as powerful as I'd like. I've written library curation tools in the past, these always expected me to spend significant dedicated time in front of a screen (e.g. a similar tool like the cool looking https://github.com/kristopolous/music-explorer, I think).
This has strong parallels to how older people consumed music - either totally passive curation (radio), or very deliberate (find music in record stores, at a friend's place, and/or select records/CDs in your own shelves). Today's ephemeral digital libraries are much lower effort, are huge and curation/selection tools are not easy enough to use, so I tend to fall back onto old favourites or recommendation engines that usually don't satisfy me.
A solution would be a much more configurable curation assistant that is also super easy to use (and, in my case) very accessible on a mobile device with 0-1 clicks (because I'm busy doing other things).
