Roon 1.6 ... with Qobuz

[Sailor4W]

All,

Quick question on the radio aspect of the update. Is this a radio/ learning kind of thing, where is plays music from your library or Tidal or Qobuz that ROON considers to be similar to the artist or song genre that you first select?

Or is it an internet radio tuner, such that I can easily go to various internet radio stations. I had a ROON trial and the lack of useable internet radio was a deal killer for us. That and the Tidal only streaming support. I'm thinking of Simple radio or TuneIn radio as ideal examples of what I need.

Thanks.

Roon has two ‚radios‘: Radio refers to what you describe, namely that Roon tries to find music similar to the one that is just playing. While in previous versions, Roon tried to find music within your existing library, it now finds it in your streaming service Tidal and Qobuz (if one has both available).

The second radio is called ‚Internet Radio‘ where you basically enter a URL of your station you want to have streamed. I haven’t played with it yet to see if became more refined than just pasting a URL into the app.
