How do you build and stream (to Android) you music collection
As per title, what if one wants to have a paid subscription to the likes of Spotify etc, but also the MP3/FLAV version of those tracks? What's the easiest way?
I know about lidarr but the fact it's album-centric is a bit of a PITA if all you care for are individual tracks of an album.
Also, which are some good Android apps to stream/download your home server collection of MP3s/FLACs?
Thanks!

I use Plex server and plexamp as client on my phone. It's hard to find individual tracks in torrents. I download whole discography anyways.
Plexamp is probably the best music player I have ever used.
Prologue is great for audiobooks too.
You install Plex media server. You forward a port in your router config. You add a library and point to your music folder. You download (and pay I believe?) a one-time fee to download Plex amp. Profit
I do this too, but I use Symfonium to stream my Plex music to my phone.
I read about Navidrome in another post. It might do what you need :)
I use yt-dlp to download from Youtube Music. Works for single tracks, albums, playlists etc
I just bought a 512GB micro SD card and loaded my 322GB music collection onto it. That way I have my music with me 24/7 and don't have to worry about connection issues.
