I use Bandcamp and redacted to fill my NAS, which runs Plex with a lifetime Plex Pass. For playback I use PlexAmp on Windows, iOS, and macOS. Very pleased with the radio / shuffle functions, sometimes it’ll absolutely nail a beat- and key-matched cross fade. Great for local library discovery.
My music library has continuity all the way back to 2000, I’ve still got a few vintage Napster MP3s from the 56k days.
Damn, I envy you. I lost all my digital music from those days to disk rot and a hard drive failure. Wish someone told me back then that CD-R was not a good backup medium. Or that I had checked on the disks before I needed them. Live and learn.
Yeah, I'm sure Finamp and the rest of the Jellyfin options people are recommending do the trick for most people, but I'm really happy with PlexAmp.
It also has Chromecast capability and is to my knowledge the only self-hosted option that does so. Really handy for casting to speaker systems, though I'm guessing many people just use Bluetooth for most off-device playback.
