"Roonies"?
"Rooners"...better....;)
How about Roonmates?
Who is Roon?
This is an organization that has developed software that consists of a Interface overlay to keep track of Music from streaming services. And create narratives about tons of albums. It’s amazing in all that it does. I have a lifetime membership.
They have a forum that provides assistance from others including all kinds of technical service which is really challenging to deal with should you have problems. They don’t offer phone service.
my question is is this some operation that operates out of someone’s basement? Do they employ thousands of people? Is it a nonprofit organization? Are they doing well financially? Is there a Mr. Roon?
Who are these people that have coordinated this service. Does anybody know anything about this organization?
Roon is great. Marvelous sound quality. Tunes both Qobuz and Tidal for me. As well as my own stuff. Roon radio is great; I just listen to something I'm in the mood for and it goes on to play tracks from albums I never considered. When it plays something I really like I add the album to my listen later group and move on. Harmon has added a much more customer focused aspect to Roon. New software developments are better as is the customer service, still by forum though. Most of the time there are no issues except for the folks who want to design their own nucleus tuning process to run the core program. Usually to be clever and save a few dollars. Often their stuff doesn't work and they blame Roon. The program is based on a fairly complex internet access which seems to awry for some folks with less strong connections or fluky IP providers. That said, works great for me, Buy it on an annual subscription. It is not for the I want free music crowd. |
That was amusing, @jond . |
