I want to make my own music streaming app. Fix all the UI problems, improve discovery, remember all the musical phases I went through.
Unfortunately, you can't just sign up for API access to millions of songs. And the streaming apps either don't provide a playback API, or their TOS limits what you can do with it.
You don't need to do a monolithic design, and kludging things together is just fine. Start with local playback from the server or something equivalently small and work from there. If you need to background play a youtube video and forward the audio stream elsewhere, so be it haha
