Just do it. 😉 Might be a Premium feature perhaps if it costs too much server space and/or bandwidth. And please add internal Last.fm scrobbling to uploaded files, too (works with browser extension Web Scrobbler in the Deezer web player which cannot stream FLAC though). Would be great if we could listen to these FLAC files in any device as well, not only in the desktop app which allows HiFi streaming.

Google Play Music and Amazon Music allow this as well, but convert them to MP3 afterwards, not sure about Tidal or Apple Music (with ALAC files), Spotify cannot upload any files anyhow, only play local files on your device:

This idea should be for now. Don’t know where to vote!

There is an “Upvote” button on the top left which you can still click on.

Thanks good sir! We still have many votes to go it seems.. I think it went under radar right now. Sadly :(

Right, it still would be nice to have of course and a unique feature that no other streaming site offers, as far as I know.

I’m also in need of this. I left Tidal because it lacked an upload feature. Meager though the upload feature of Deezer is (you get one big list of uploaded songs that you then have to manually order into playlists. The Google Play Music feature was waaaaay better, ordering any tracks you uploaded into the correct artist and album in your library), at least there is some option to enjoy songs on all my devices through Deezer, that lack in their own collection.

However, I do find it very frustrating that while I pay for premium hifi quality music, I cannot upload my own Music in the same CD quality. That really just sucks.
