Why would you want to install closed source, instead of the compatible FOSS forks?

 

At least LibreSonic should ne mentioned!

LibreSonic forked to airsonic (https://github.com/airsonic/airsonic)

Libresonic is no longer really an active project.  Long live airsonic!  https://airsonic.github.io/

Used to be under Ubuntu 14.04 that Subsonic could access and build a music DB and play media sources from assigned Home Folders.

Is this no longer the case under Ubuntu 18.04???

I must admit I am very upset by having to create an additional directory on the VAR file for my media. Especially considering this would be very unwise to create a Samba Network share from any Folder in the VAR folder, and if that is even if it is possible.

Suggestions???
