International music wouldn't be so hard to find if this fucking incredible 10/10 program simply allowed more non English characters in the search query.
How do you find music from non English sources on here? I usually do artist phonetic names and release year of the album being looked for

Don’t know what you’re talking about, I’ve done searches with Japanese and Hindi characters

It's about sharing weird shit. I'm not into whatever hardcore CP rape power electronics. But when the platform starts banning music it kinda defeats the purpose of Soulseek

youtubes maximum audio bitrate is like 192kbps. but even worse, most people who upload are probably going to use a lossy format in the first place, eg 320kbps or v0 mp3, which the site re-encodes for storage and streaming efficiency. so not only are you getting sub-200kbps bitrates, practically everything is a lossy-lossy transcode. youtube has the worst audio quality of all streaming options, and by some margin

I search the name of a song and usually the album comes up. Happens a lot searching the album name and it doesnt come up but the song name makes it show up. This is only a problem on mobile. On PC, something shows up everytime

Streaming is low quality, downloading let's me listen to songs in high quality. If you say there's no difference stop using Bluetooth

sometimes things are screwy, even on PC. for instance, if I search for LΓ΄ Borges (with or without the circumflex on the o) I get zero results. the guy has like 20 albums, and theyre all there, you just cant search his name for some reason, and its been like that forever. you can search the individual albums and they show up. to find his self titled album you have to search the name of one of the tracks.

how does music.youtube.com compare to other streaming platforms?

Is there a good way to hear the difference in quality?

download some flac files of cleanly and well-recorded music (ie dont use lo-fi hardcore garage punk etc) that you know pretty well, or play or rip a cd if you can, then you know exactly what youve got. listen to a track for a minute or so, then play the same thing on youtube, then go back to your lossless file or cd, then back to youtube. try to have them both at the same volume and give it a decent amount of time so you get used to what its sounding like before switching. you might want to try a few different tracks of pieces of music
listen for a sense of realism, and a sense of space around the instruments. pay particular attention to vocals, the timbre of acoustic instruments, and most especially cymbals. cymbals in low bitrates can sound artificial and hissy, like an 80s drum machine that just goes "tssss" to imitate a hi-hat. a well recorded and well reproduced cymbal should sound realistic, metallic and not overly sibilant, you should hear the impact of the stick on the metal and the ringdown as the sound dies away.
if you cant tell the difference, one out of your speakers/headphones/ears is below par. but if its not bothering you, thats fine too.

You verified the open port using an external site like https://canyouseeme.org/? Maybe you're using a VPN which doesn't permit port forwarding like Mullvad or else you're a huge pleb who only shares pleb music and your UL speed is so shit you're last in the results
