1, +Responsive pages. Good for mobile phones.
2, +It supports transcoding (like 320k to 128k mp3).
3, -No LRC file supported.
4, +Support download (zipped package for playlists, single file can also be downloaded, and you can turned this feature off if you don't want to).
5, +Supports multiple user, supports for public or personal playlists.
6, -Songs can not be added to playlists by realistic folder if you have multiple folders. ( e.g /home/music/songs/a/ and /home/music/songs/b/ ), I put my folder name into "comment" mp3tag. And it can be recognized from "Songs", and now you could add them to playlist.

So far so good.

Very broken. Can't disable lastFM integration because the program rejects the config. Blank entries means it looks up. Filled a log file. Filled the VM's drive. 10 hours and hadn't scanned a library others did in 15 minutes. A very "our way" attitude over requested features they say they'll never support.

Great UI but overall lousy project.

A great music streaming server and awesome webapp! Even my non-technical family members used and liked it!

Lightweight, easy to setup and full-featured. Subsonic compatibility works well. Nothing to complain about.

Ps.: for smart playlists feature, I suggest you'll to check out Tauon. It enables to create smart playlists using Navidrome/Subsonic library.

Best self-hosted music server I tried so far. Much more usable than subsonic/airsonic etc, better metadata handling than Koel. Only lacking smart playlist support, and it will be perfect.
