I hear you about the proliferation of streaming services... After being a long-time Google Music subscriber, I switched to TIDAL plus Plex for my own music library for the past few years, but I have given up on the quirks of the TIDAL Android app (and also having to use Plexamp for part of my library). So even thought I am reluctant to switch back, YTM allows you to upload and mix your own collection with their catalog and has also solved the mobile device/offline problem. Regarding the reverse-engineering work, I've started looking info leveraging 'sigma67/ytmusicapi' (https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi). For LMS, this would require using Inline::Python again (similar to the 'hechtus/squeezebox-googlemusic plugin' (https://github.com/hechtus/squeezebox-googlemusic)), but I recall all of that working well enough. Now I have to see if I can devote enough time to pursue it as a side-project. Thank you for all of the work you do to support LMS and related software! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tmancill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43644 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113267
