Discord Music Streaming Bot Alternatives to Rythm

You might already know that Groovy has left Discord and that the beloved Rythm bot will be shutting down soon too. We can spam "F" to show our opposition to this, but we cannot stop YouTube from taking them down—sedge, but that's how the ball rolls. With that said, we still would like to enjoy and chill around in our respective Discord lobbies, which is why we procured a list of other bot alternatives present in Discord. Here we go.

What is a Discord bot?

この記事を読んでいるということは、すでにDiscordボットが何かをご存知だと思いますが、知らない方のために説明します。Discordは（驚きかもしれませんが）プラットフォーム上で動作するボットで、ユーザーに機能や個性を提供します。サーバーに個性を与えるのです。チャットボットは人間の会話を再現しようとし、モデレーションボットはサーバー規則に違反するユーザーを監視する警備員のように機能し、そして必須とも言える音楽ボットはチャンネル内で音楽をストリーミングできます。次の瞬間には、ゲームをしながらムーランの『I'll make a man out of you』が流れているかもしれません。

With that out of the way, let us proceed to the alternatives you can have in your Discord server.

MEE6

First up on this list is the cute, joyful-looking MEE6 bot. More known to be a top-notch moderation bot, MEE6 can also stream music, supporting SoundCloud, Spotify, YouTube, and many more. Instead of using commands such as '!play' or '!search', users can hop into MEE6's dashboard and use the visual player present to monitor music and playlists. Aside from its visual player, MEE6 also features 24/7 playing, meaning it can sit on a server and play music—just like how you would constantly hear lobby music at a hotel to accommodate guests. Yeah, it gives off that kind of vibe.

Do note that these features are locked behind payment, it can be paid monthly for a price of USD 11.95, yearly for USD 43.02, and a one-time payment of USD 79.90.

Chip

If you are the type of chap that likes to control music equalizers such as bass, treble, mids, highs—the whole lot, Chip bot might be the one for you. Created by user Kyoso, Chip supports Twitch, Bandcamp, YouTube, Mixer, Vimeo, and SoundCloud and gives access to audio controls for vocal, treble, and bass boost, as well as an audio equalizer. If you do install this, it uses the code "ch!" for the commands. To add to these, Chip can also stream 180 radio stations from around the world—poggers.

The bot is free to use, however, users can opt to support its creator with, USD 5.00 per month for user premium and USD 12.50 per month.

ProBot

Just like MEE6, ProBot is a very customizable multipurpose bot for welcome images, In-depth logs, Social commands, Music, Moderation, plus it is multilingual and can support more than 13 languages. In addition, it boasts an uptime of 99.99%, meaning you wouldn't have moments of the bot dying mid-montage music. It also features anti-raid protection, which responds to attempts when the server gets randomly populated by trollers or other bots.

The bot is free to use, however, users can donate to its developers via ProBot Support.

Octave bot

Next on the list is Octave (formerly known as Gnar), another popular Discord bot offering both free and premium features. Octave supports playlist creation, queues, and shuffles from YouTube and SoundCloud platforms for its free features. Its premium features, on the other hand, grant access to audio filters, custom playlists, and longer queue playlists for those long hours of gaming or group bonding time.

As for prices, Octave is priced at USD 5.00 per month for one server. However, if you spend USD 10.00 per month, you get premium access to Octave on two servers.

Hydra

最後に紹介するのはHydraです。このDiscordボットは、YouTube、SoundCloud、Spotify、Deezer、Bandcamp、ラジオストリーミングに対応した通常の音楽プレイリスト、キュー、ループなどをユーザーに提供します。さらに、再生中の曲の歌詞やその他の情報を検索することもできます。Hydraボットはプレミアムサービスも提供しており、音量調整、オーディオエフェクト、24時間365日の再生ストリーミング、無制限の保存プレイリストへのアクセスが可能です。

Users can access these premium services at USD 1.99 per month or USD 19.99 per year. If you want to opt for server premium services it will cost USD 2.99 per month while it will be USD 29.99 per year.

以上が、今日インストールできる代替音楽ストリーミングDiscordボットのリストです。Rythmの制作者が、すべての音楽ストリーミングボットは最終的に大手YouTubeプラットフォームに狩られるだろうと述べたことは、かなり不気味です。この記事執筆時点での被害者は二人ですが、次は誰になるのでしょうか？何が起こったのか気になる方は、こちらをクリックしてください。
