Soulseek

Came to say the same! 👍

rutracker always has legit flac rips, some on soulseek can be fake
-
And when a source isn't clear, they mark the post as #doubtful.
It is where I get my music too. They even have tons of Vinyl or SACD rips, among other hi-res formats, if you're into that.

Soulseek

Use Nicotine+ on desktop and Seeker on Android.
-
There is also a docker version https://github.com/slskd/slskd

They are rebranding to a new website it is faster imo I don't like how when u unzip the files there is no parent folder however you have to make that.
Edit: New site https://lucida.to/
-
There's discord groups but they're hard to find because of snitches. I got in early so I have some access now but it's hard for newcomers

deezer arls and qobuz access tokens from https://rentry.org/firehawk52 to dowload with https://github.com/nathom/streamrip

FNP, TL, ST are good. Any general purpose PT is nice since you're probably never getting into RED or OPS anyways haha. Like me :(
-
Can you expand the acronyms?
-
Private trackers. I think common ones. If you search them with "tracker" you'll probably find them.
-
-
Isn't OPS relatively easy to interview in to?
-
-
Just use SoulSeekQt and filter for .flac, if the song you're looking for was ever released on flac it'll be there
-
Another way that needs a credit card:
Make a disposable e-mail, sign up for a month trial for Qobuz or Tidal and use a program like StreamRip to just download high-quality music straight from the platform.
When the trial ends, just make a new e-mail and repeat.
Someone mentioned Lucida here, which is more straightforward, but I found it slow and often failing. Once you're signed up, downloading is easy and it's the easiest way to get more obscure stuff in high quality.

They’re on CDs, you just need some gumption
-
This. Physical media is awesome to own, and ripping extremely high-quality copies is actually pretty easy, just time-consuming.
I recommend EAC (Exact Audio Copy). It's free and there are some awesome guides online for setting it to get the best quality for your rips.
-
-
SLSK, private trackers, public trackers, random websites, open directories, ripping your own CDs.
-
Is there any site that gives you all the different music services URLs, like a searcher that makes it easier?
-
The best way for me that I found is using Soulseek, sadly it's proprietary but it's really nice as a lot of people share on it
