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.

I would use Soulseek for that
Redacted and Orpheus are good private general music trackers with loads of FLACs. Join by interview or getting an invite.
Orpheus is good. I used to have an account but it got disabled because I wasnt using it as much as I thought I would. Great tracker. They do a lot to make sure you can keep your ratio positive.
Too add on to this, many private trackers will not disable your account for inactivity if you reach a certain user class or make a one time donation (including OPS).
Plus reaching out to the staff on IRC is a good way to have an account re-enabled if it does get disabled.
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
yt-dlp downloads music from youtube which is encoded in either opus or aac. Yt dlp doesn’t actually download flacs,mp3… but convert the music from youtube into the desired format.
ah yea its not true lossless, but optimized upscale or the sort - but better than some ripping options out there
