Ok, so I wanna expand my local music library, but Lidarr isn't doing it for me. My problem with it is mainly that it downloads all kinds of weird releases of an album when I just want the bog standard first release of an album. Also, for single songs it's quite the kerfuffle.

A possibility is downloading songs from YouTube through Stacher but then I need to update all the metadata myself, which I haven't found a user-friendly program for so far.

So my question is: Is there a program like Lidarr, but for single songs? Or some other solution to the issue I'm having?

My current solution is a deemix cli tool and lidarr for cataloguing only. I match up the directory naming conventions on both so that nothing needs to be touched in Lidarr that might modify the tags. I have a few scripts that help with automating some of this. I might be motivated to put things in a repo if there is interest.
