Where to find flac and other lossless file types
Does anyone have good site recommendations for lossless files such as flac's specifically for music.

Not a site, but Nicotine+ is where you can drop anchor.

Soulseek is my past, present and future.

💯

Check out private torrent trackers. Look for Orpheous and Redacted, OPH/RED.
-
RED isn't worth it compared to the other one since everything will trickle down to OPH anyways, RED has a very mean test and will hate you for searching anything at all.

Mostly for me, Qobuz rips (through SlavArt) are the best. But if for some reason you can't get what you want on Qobuz, I typically look it up on Soulseek and 99% of the time I found what I'm looking for

I used to like slavart. I found out about them while they still allowed album downloads on their website. Later I moved to their divolt website (like a selfhosted discord) where they allowed downloads via bots.
At some point they decided not to bother with divolt and told everyone to start using their discord bot. Anyone who had concerns about privacy or about using their main discord account for piracy was pretty much told that they were an idiot and should go fuck themselves.
At that point I transitioned to ripping directly from quobus as explained in this guide. If I can't find what I want on quobuz I go to deezer.

Sign up for a free trial of Tidal. Use tidal-dl from GitHub

This is really good. If you VPN to Nigeria it only costs $2.70 a month.

Seconding this, as it's my go-to for anything that's not for sale on Bandcamp and has treated me well.

For flac albums, try galxytorrent2 or RUtracker.
-
I second RuTracker, you can find some pretty rare out of print stuff.

Usenet is actually a way better source for FLAC.
-
Plenty of albums get ripped lossless(typically FLAC) and uploaded to Usenet
-
@thebaymusicbot @deezertogdrivebot Search these bots on telegram
-
Is this safe? Can I get my Telegram account banned?
-
It is safe. Telegram only bans specific communities it finds engaged in piracy, and even that it does very slowly, mostly under legal pressure. No user accounts have been banned for that, ever.
It's also worth noting that Pavel Durov, the man behind Telegram, has previously created the famous VK social network, and up until he was kicked out of director board, he fought for free (including pirated) music on the platform.

How does your bot grab FLAC's from Spotify?
A friend of mine said they don't serve FLAC's, and it also seems in our testing we broke @deezertogdrivebot and it's getting rate limited?

Soulseek with Nicotine+.
There's a lossless filter.
-
Doubling down on Soulseek through Nicotine+.
Some of the prominent names cannot be found there due to lawsuits, but majority of music is in there, one search bar away.
Also, it works well for films, series, and even games sometimes.

SoulSeekQT is a free p2p file sharing service specifically for music and you can specify file types or bitrate in filters.
Nicotine also can do similar stuff if you just add *.flac to the search field.
Wow, didn't know this was still a thing. Used to love Soulseek back in 2004.
