No Taylor Swift, just good music. If you use Jriver, you can stream them from inside the player. https://tunein.com/radio/The-Current-893-s20620/ This link to be used for Roon AudioDoctor 1 Link to comment

Roon does that without tagging. Roon can show you your library by format, version, or almost anything you can think about. Use the focus function. Link to comment

Maybe explain your problems ? Have you got the chance to test more expensive DAC’s ? Link to comment

That’s why I paid the $499. As I paid for my W10 licenses, that has free upgrades. So far. Good SW should be paid for, not rented. Still I rent my music through Tidal, and movie through Netflix, though I’m also paying for renting and developing their SW. However. Somehow Roon and others need a income in order to develop and and do maintenance. The way Roon solve things with a client server approach is unlike no others. I think it can’t be compared. And in addition you get MQA first unfold. Roon is now developing a new mobile platform BTW. Link to comment

That’s my understanding of a lifetime subscription. What is your understanding ? That you rent it for the rest of your life, if so, what’s the difference and how does it matter to you ?

I suspect most customers pay yearly (do they allow that $100/year to be paid monthly?). Just to be clear what your paying for: Link to comment

Once that subscription is removed, the yearly subscription will be the only option. I suspect as soon as enough people avail themselves of the lifetime subscription, it will be pulled. What is "enough"? Only the Roon higher ups know that. You’re correct. The lifetime subscription is a very good offer. Link to comment

I have previously tried to contact you to explain further and offer proof of my findings ,but you don't appear to have seen my PMs Regards Alex Well, what about the chosen block size of your storage ? Maybe that could influence also ? ? I personally choose the hugest possible size, as audiofiles is huge themselves. Link to comment
