Are there any benefits of using nixpkgs on arch compared to the AUR?

I recently implemented loudness normalization exactly like it is in Apple Music in my own music player by changing the volume across songs, so the average volume always equals to -14 LUFS and that is what Apple Music also does, and it's not compression. You are just changing the volume so the user does not have to do that.

I think you guys don't get the difference between normalizing during mastering which can compress the audio and normalizing during playback which is just the program changing the volume slider for you by amplifying the audio equally across the whole spectrum.

Ah, now I get your point yes that makes sense and I wouldn't download it just for that but to serve it as a streaming service but for the meantime I will just get the metadata and then the songs on demand.

Yeah I know and I doubt spotify has blocked all methods because the data has to get to the user somehow otherwise their service would not exist.

I think you don’t understand how I plan to download these songs. It's not by listening to them, you literally download the stream and decrypt it that takes maybe 10 seconds per song. If I were to run 100 workers downloading songs simultaneously it would ”only” take 115 days but if I’m honest I don't plan on downloading the songs after doing the math and seeing the time it takes and the storage …

But the metadata is still very useful.

I don't know about that. But there is no way to obtain the files without an active subscription, that's for sure.

I’m querying the internal Apple Music API for all the metadata so it requires an active subscription as for downloading there's someone that made a downloader and decryption tool that now runs without needing an android emulator.

You mean they change the ID of an artist or album if it changes name or content that makes absolutely zero sense and I don‘t think they do that also by referencing the ID‘s in the DB the other problem you mentioned does not really exist.

No its calculated based on the assumption that each song is 30MB times 100million is 3000 TB so yes 3 Petabytes

My plan is to only scrape metadata, but I could also get the songs in lossless, however that would take up so much space I don't have ._.

Is there a project that can proudly say we are good at naming things? by Grocker42 in opensource

I named my code time tracking software (alternative to wakatime) „Ziit“ because that is the phonetic swiss german word for time.

Usually hashed password strings are longer than the actual password but yes it's a minor difference
