## What it is
Meelo is a self-hosted music streaming server designed for music collectors, similar to Plex or Jellyfin but focused on music. It offers rich metadata integration, music video support, album release/track version management, and a polished web UI.

## Use cases
- self-host my music collection like plex for music
- stream my music library to a browser
- manage albums with multiple releases and versions
- organize music videos alongside my music
- get automatic metadata and lyrics for my songs
- scrobble plays to last.fm and listenbrainz
- browse a large music collection with good metadata

## When to choose
- you are a music collector with complex libraries (releases, B-sides, rare tracks, versions)
- you want music videos as first-class citizens
- you want rich metadata from MusicBrainz, Genius, and Wikipedia
- you want a self-hosted alternative to Koel or Black Candy with a strong UI

## When to avoid
- you need a simple plug-and-play music player with minimal setup
- you primarily want podcast or audiobook management
- you need offline native mobile apps as the core experience
- you want multi-user media server for video content in general
