Likely very cheap, you just have to buy all of the hardware first. I’ve got a raspberry pi b+ (the 2012 one) that I’ve previously used to host my music.


IVPN Looks really good, does it have port forwarding so you can torrent with it?


You say that a VPN isn’t needed for Soulseek because it is ptp (peer to peer I assume?), but I thought that was the same “thing” as torrents use, which I’m fairly certain you pretty much need a VPN for?


Can I download entire albums at once using spotube?


Thanks! I’ll check out the DDL links and see if I find the music I usually listen to


Is there any reason to have port forwarding on a VPN if I’m only going to use Soulseek?


Some questions about Soulseek
Hello pirates! I've recently started high school, which means that I now get money from the state, which also means that my parents no longer pay for my Spotify premium. I could probably afford it, but I'd rather save my money, so I've been looking into different ways of obtaining music for free. One thing that really caught my eye is Soulseek. It seems like a good option for my needs + I could set up a server on my raspberry pi to be able to access all of my music from anywhere. My biggest concern is getting in trouble with the authorities, because my parents would kill me if the cops came knocking on our door due to me pirating stuff. So I was wondering whether it would be worth it to spend some money on a VPN (and which one), or if I should just raw dog it and not use a VPN at all? I live in Sweden, and I haven't found any cases of people getting arrested for pirating music, but it is technically illegal afaik. Thankful for any answers!

I’m fairly certain a seeder is someone who has already downloaded the file and is actively “uploading” it so that leechers get better download speeds. Don’t quote me on this as I’ve never really torrented anything ever. For more accurate information, just use google
