Hi all,
I pirate plenty of games and films, but I haven’t pirated music in years. Recently, I’ve been using FOSS streaming alternatives that hook into Spotify or YouTube to avoid ads.
However, my Android is currently out of service (waiting on a new screen), so I’m using an old Nokia Lumia 1020. In 2025, it’s practically a dumb phone, so I need MP3s, WAVs, or FLAC files to have some sound in my life. I’m struggling to find music—my taste is eclectic and niche, and I’m also lazy. Are there any active communities in 2025 that focus on music piracy with curated playlists?
I’m specifically looking for:
- Folk-punk
- Post-punk
- British indie
- Swing
Any advice is welcome!-------
Since it’s p2p do I need to use a VPN to not get with a dmca letter?
As long as you don’t share anything you should be okay! It’s not very ethical tough… But you can share your files list with users you trust (for example people you have already downloaded from).
At any rate i never heard of anyone getting in trouble for using soulseek.
