it doesn't even have to take as much time or drive space as you imagine.

I follow almost 2,000 artists on Spotify 😅

Is there a way I can probe this library you speak of so I can make sure it has all my shit before I devote all this effort and drive space?

    Sure, just download Nicotine+ or another Soulseek client and search for the artists you're most interested in. You won't be able to "import library" or probe 2000 artists at once, but still, it will give you an idea. Since Soulseek is a P2P network, ideally you should keep port 2234 (or whatever you set in the client) open to see all content it has to offer. But if you can't, no worries, you'll still see plenty!

    Thanks, I might give this a shot. My whole family is on Spotify though so it'll be a tough sell. We use it in order to play certain tabletop games as well, with printed links that open songs on Spotify. 😅

    But this could be a fun experiment for just me.

    You never know!

    My girlfriend asked me to download her collection, too. She still didn't give up streaming, but knowing her favs will never be taken away from her gives her some peace of mind.
