# Openwhyd
> 💎 Like Pinterest, but for Music. Discover, collect and play music from Youtube, Soundcloud, Bandcamp, Deezer and other streaming platforms.
Openwhyd is a music curation service freely available at [openwhyd.org](https://openwhyd.org). It was designed for music lovers who enjoy taking their time to find the best tracks and videos for their collection, including:
- music videos, bootlegs and specific live performances,
- fresh tracks from new and/or local artists,
- DJ sets and rare remixes,
- or any song that can be found and streamed online, and may not be found on Spotify, Apple Music or other music services.
