Airsonic Advanced Hosting

Managed Airsonic Advanced, ready in under a minute.

Airsonic Advanced is an open source music server for people who already have a digital music collection. Browse your albums, build playlists and stream your own files through its web player or a compatible Subsonic client. It suits listeners who want a long-established style of server and don't need a subscription catalog or a polished streaming service.

Keep a central library that you can reach from multiple devices, with separate user accounts and options for managing podcasts and internet radio. Airsonic Advanced builds on Airsonic with an updated streaming engine, faster library handling and a revised web interface. It needs no Subsonic license key. You supply all the music, and change the default password as soon as the pod starts.

It is an alternative to Plex and YouTube Music.
