BUT, IMO it doesn't hold a candle to what Roon provides overall (of course, it doesn't strive to do all of what Roon does either). Yes, there are a few things in the LMS/iPeng subsystem that works better and I do believe that had Logitech not bailed, it may have ultimately come close to what Roon is now. But the LMS/iPeng ship has sailed (or more like dry docked ;-) while Roon is growing and improving substantially every day. I can't imagine going back.
I guess iPeng in general displayed the information LMS provided. For me Roon has more than enough to display, but it's remote control UI is not as well behaved as iPeng. I would also like to turn off many of the UI elements like stars, heart, play count and have bigger cover art to make it look the way I want it. At the moment somebody else is deciding..., but I agree with you - Roon is much better than LMS and I would not go back
