I never switched to streaming services of any kind nor to any other subscription scams. I have a large catalogue of music and access to loads of internet radio stations to discover new music - Radio Paradise being one of my go-to spots for such - and see no need to get entangled in yet another contract for things which did not need such before the push to eternal payments. Just install your own streaming service - I'm still running Airsonic because it works and I mostly use the Subsonic API so the somewhat clunky web interface doesn't bother me - and point it at your collection and ditch whatever paid subscription service you use. Keep regular backups and store them somewhere safe so your collection can survive the inevitable demise of whatever storage medium you keep it on. Done, no more "expert" advise needed.
