@momo@floss.social In our case we’re storing other data on server anyway, photos, videos important documents etc. so adding #Navidrome and a bit more storage wasn’t big diff. Server is low power and passive cooled, few spinning rust HDDs are making negligible difference in power bill but owned files won’t dissapear due to legal difficulties between content/streaming provider and publisher/artist.
Streaming services are great for finding new artists/music though!

@t0maz@floss.social I found most music I listen to through friends, a mixtape community and last.fm. Sure I am running lots of other services on my server. When you store movies you need a lot of space. The question ist how often do you rewatch a movie or relisten to some music that might dissappear. I was just saying that financially it is a lot more cheap for most of us to subscribe to a service.
