I did not read the hole thread but except many technical issues and improvements Roon is working on it is not quite clear to me what Roon is for.
That what I could read on different threads: Roon is a software which has better metadata and additional info than e.g. iTunes. Sound wise it is not better than Audirvana+ etc.. The amount of downloads I have I can manage without all the extra possibilities of Roon (at least presently). Roon is as fas as I know the only software which can integrate Tidal and I can see having better navigation and more information about music than Tidal supplies would be very positive but there is a lot of music I can not find on Tidal (and having a better UI would not change that) so I am not sure whether it makes sense for me to continue to subscribe to Tidal.
So can any of you Roon user tell me if I am missing something?
P.s.:
Using a Roon derived software (Roonspeaker) not on a computer but in a music server or something similar is different (and would likely not be part of a Roon subscription). MQA integration might change my evaluation too!
