Great post, really. Not too much partisan
and obviously written with a certain knowledge of both systems. A fact I often miss.
For ME Roon indeed only really makes sense when running and keeping up to date a BIG stored music library. Emphasis on BIG. Streaming in Roon is a nice to have, it widens the chances for the algorithms to show more options.
I do not know if my remaining lifetime will be long enough to see that this childish bashing (a little bit unbalanced
) stops and everyone accepts that there, heaven thanks, are different approaches. Its like Beatles or Stones? Both! Peaceful co-existence. What me really bores are this "too expensive", "ridiculous amount of money" and all this price related arguments. We are talking about 12 to 15 € or equivalent per month for a subscription. The available hardware isn't necessarily expensive, not more than for the alternative solution. Shouldn't we expect to write with adult people each one reasonable enough to know exactly what he or she can and/or is willing to pay for this or that?
