I don't know if there exists a solution with all your requirements. You could host your own music library via Plex or something, and aquire stuff via lidarr but this doesn't have the instant availability of Spotify.
I'd probably use ViMusic (android) if we didn't have a family apple music sub going. It basically uses the YouTube music backend. Super easy to set up and use, has on-device playlist and download support. I don't think it does synchronisation though.
What's the bitrate gonna be on ViMusic though – is it whatever is on actual YouTube video uploads? I imagine that would be very lossy. I could be wrong. If it was ~320kbps I'd be all over it. That's what I'm looking for really. Short of my current solution, which is Soulseek > cloud service storage > CloudBeats (Android app) for stuff I want decent quality of, and Spotify adfree using XManager for discovery and lower quality listening.
Most songs are between 130 and 160kbps
Ah thanks for letting me know. Not ideal
I think YouTube music is different to actual YouTube but I'm not exactly sure. You can always just try it and see if it's good enough.
