An aquantance of mine has a CD collection and wants to rip it. They don't want to stream it over a server but rather store it, say, on a hard drive connected directly to their speakers/receiver. While they **don't want to stream ** it wirelessly to/from their phone, they do want to **control** selection/playback. Kind of like a remote controlled jukebox or, well, a really big CD player. I am thinking there's probably some raspberry pi project to play on-device music library that has a remote control library plug-in over LAN. I'd also like there to be a backup option, like a Pi GUI so they could see their library on the TV. I'm envisioning an interface similar to the retro game players or kodi. Does this exist?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/1100734 > Hello, all. Does anybody have experience with the LibreCloud hosting service? It seems very attractive with reasonable pricing for a 1TB plan ($15/month) and United States servers close to my area, but I can find almost nothing about it, positive or negative online. > > I really need to make sure my files are safe, and self-hosting isn't an option (at the moment) with my atrocious cable upload speed and data cap. Do any of you use it or could recommend an alternative? I am also looking into proprietary cloud storage, at least temporarily, like pcloud and icedrive.
