We have Stremio for movies and TV, which works flawlessly by pulling from different sources (add-ons) including torrents into one clean UI. But when it comes to music, the options are either paying for Spotify/Tidal or dealing with clunky, manual setups.

I’ve seen apps like ViMusic or Innertune, but they are mostly just YouTube Music frontends. Soulseek is a p2p service and the usability is horrible.
I'm talking about a true, modular aggregator. That uses torrents and lossless databases.

The pirates just can’t keep up.

You should check out private music trackers. The pirates are literally racing to get new releases up there. Maybe they aren't quite as complete as some music services but I think it would be hard to argue that they aren't keeping up.

Care to share some? Public trackers are trash for music.

It’s exceedingly hard to get ratio on redd

It is definitely slow, but once you get quite a bit of stuff it isn't that bad. But if you want to easier economy just go for OPS.

They do give away lots of freeleech tokens to get your ratio going, tho
