I personally use jellyfin and supply the media myself, though there are much better ways to do it.

I recommend the beta edition as the UI is quite evolved from the previous version.

I want to support the artists, though.
Then buy the record at bandcamp. My band made 10 times more in a month at bandcamp than in 4 years of spotify.
"Whoa, whoa, slow your roll... when I said I wanted to support the artists, I was talking about ensuring they receive a fraction of a penny! Ain't nobody got $15 to throw around for an album!"
The way I see it, we all should pirate music and buy as directly as possible from the bands/artists we want to support.

I shelled out quite some money for musicians whose music pirated when I was a teenager. Ethically it may not be 100% sound, but if I apply the golden rule ("Treat others the way you want to be treated") it is totally the way to go for me.

That testimonials section is pretty incredible, to the point I'm not sure if the whole thing is satire or not.
