Saw this and set it up. Hopefully it will grow and get better as a tracker the worst part about self hosting music is most of the time the music data is pulled from musicbrainz but new music or lesser known artists are never there I end up adding most of the music I listen to to there database.
Edit: does not seem to work as anticipated it does not read albums you have only artists and is now telling me every album I that has released this year from the artists I have. Still interesting and will follow this project closely. Maybe I missed a release lol.
Lidarr might do it but I no longer run it as it didn’t really work well for me but I have not touched it in over a year. Also music torrents are very rare from my experience. I recently heard about “lidar on steroids” but have yet to fully look into it.
Edit: it looks the it has been updated to have a UI now so maybe it does read albums

Doesn’t Lidarr do a similar thing? Not sure if it operates the same if you don’t have the arr part of it going.

It works great with usenet, detects albums you have and looks for those you don’t, with a decent UI for managing.
