Hi! I wanted to start to hoard my favorite tracks in the best possible quality. A lot of stuff is available through Deezer or Tidal i know, but what sources are you guys using when FLACs for particular albums or songs cannot be found on Deezer or Tidal? I wanted to get the Rock n Roll Train song from ACDC in FLAC, but Tidal doesn’t have it in FLAC.
Are there any good Public/Private trackers for Music?
Cheers.

If you’re looking for rock/metal then en.metal-tracker.com usually has lots of flac rips.
Metal tracker is the best around. Now if only I could get a signup confirmation email to go through.

free-mp3 is the one I use myself
The link may sound shady af, but it hasn’t given me any problems
Snappy interface, quick downloads, definitely gets a recommendation from me
I use it too. So far, it’s working great for me.
another vouch for free-mp3
been using it for 1-2 years now

Nicotine+ (Soulseek)
A $15 deezer subscription will last you a month and you can download as much flac quality tracks as you want with deezloader or deemix. They don’t have everything but they have a lot.
Getting a tidal trial and using tidal downloader would be better imo. In my experience you can get multiple trials even with the same CC when using different email address, have done it 4+ times with the same CC.
I would use Soulseek for that
Search: “tidal-dl GitHub”.
I think they have a Spotify version linked as well.
That may save to the FLAC format but is it going to be actual FLAC quality?
You may need a premium account for FLAC. But from what I can tell by reading the code in the repo, it does infact download in lossless FLAC format.
Otherwise it looks like you can download the free-tier quality by choosing that in the settings.
Rutracker maybe 🤔
- soulseek
- rutracker
- Usenet
- deezloader or tidal-dl
- hd24net (you’ll need a mega account)
R/Rip requests used to be a good source before it got shut down.
surprised no mention of yt-dlp https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp - has support for (currently supported: best (default), aac, alac, flac, m4a, mp3, opus, vorbis, wav

ah yea its not true lossless, but optimized upscale or the sort - but better than some ripping options out there
