A MUSIC APP FOR TAKING BACK CONTROL

The music you love deserves a place to stay.

Streaming services ask you to trade ownership for convenience, but their constantly changing catalogs can leave you without the songs you thought were yours. Decembien and its community help you build a collection you control and can stream anywhere, forever.

01

Connect playlists online. Scan your music files with the desktop app.

02

Buy the songs you want to keep, or import music you already own.

03

Decembien turns your songs into your personal streaming service that is yours forever.

ACCESS ISN'T OWNERSHIP

Your playlists contain all of your songs - until they don't.

Streaming lets you hear millions of songs, but it doesn't give you a copy of any of them. When a service's catalog changes, a song, album, or artist you saved can become entirely unavailable to you.

You might find a greyed-out track—or notice months later that something you loved has gone missing. Decembien watches your playlists, alerts you to changes, and keeps a record of the songs you can no longer play there.

BRING YOUR MUSIC TOGETHER

Your music, back in your hands.

Connect the playlists you use on Spotify, Apple Music, and elsewhere. Let the Decembien desktop app scan music files on your computer to bring both sides into one view.

See which songs from your streaming playlists you already own and choose what to buy and keep next as you move forward on your journey to real ownership.

A WAY FORWARD

Keep streaming.
Start owning.

Keep using streaming to discover music while you work on building out a library that you actually own. Decembien turns that library into your personal streaming service that is yours forever.

START WHERE YOU ARE

Own none of it yet? That's a starting point.

Start with the songs you already save. Buy copies of the ones you love, one at a time. Each purchase is one less song you have to depend on a streaming service to hear.

WHAT $20 A MONTH ADDS UP TO

Time paid Spent Songs owned
Month 1 $20 0
Month 6 $120 0
Year 5 $1,200 0

A subscription buys access. It leaves you with no songs you own from those payments.

WATCH WHAT CHANGES WHEN YOU BUY A SONG

01 / RELYING ON STREAMING

Every song depends on someone else's catalog.

You own none of these songs yet. To hear them, you need the streaming service to keep carrying them.

02 / HALF OF THEM ARE YOURS

Six songs can no longer be taken out of your collection.

You could play those six from your own copies, including through your personal Decembien music service. The other six still need streaming, so you're only halfway there.

03 / YOUR MUSIC, YOUR CALL

All twelve songs are yours to keep.

Listen to your own collection wherever you go. You can still use streaming to discover songs and follow artists, but you no longer need a subscription just to hear these favorites. Your copies stay in your library even if a service removes the tracks. You decide what stays.

01 / WHY

Keep the songs you love.

Buy a copy of a song you care about. If a streaming service drops it later, your copy is still yours to play.

02 / HOW

Find a copy to buy.

Not sure where to look? Decembien will help you find places that sell the music you want to own.

03 / WHERE THIS LEADS

Listen on your terms.

Build a library of your own, then play it anywhere through your personal Decembien music service.

MAKE IT YOURS

Your collection starts with a song.

Start with the playlists you already love. Find the songs you'd hate to lose, and let Decembien help you buy a copy to keep. Your collection can grow at your own pace.
