    Roon Labs acquired Today by Harman, a Samsung Company

    in Music

    Posted

    The leadership at Roon published an update on their progress, and re-focused USER-DIRECTED priorities last week.  Their message is making the rounds on a number of forums.  Posting it hear if you are a Roon user and want the latest.  I think the roon discussiong groiup will be the place to read more and see others' reactions to the news.  They are announcing several new things, and lifting some of the restrictions that many Roon users were ticked off about (like required live internet connection for ARC that made the entire system unusable when power or internet was down, reboot problems, etc.).

    Here's an interview with the CEO of Roon, about the acquisition by Harmon.

     

     

    So far, I'm pretty happy with what they are doing.  One thing is going to really help users, is the shift in focus on developing new features in the queue, by offloading the broader effort (resource drain) of gaining new customers/subscriptions, just to stay alive.  Geoffrey Moore would call this a "quantum leap" across the Chasm (referencing his book"Crossing the Chasm").

     

    My hope is they add some more music libraries..., like Apple and/or Amazon.  Although, I have not found any missing tracks or albums from my genre preferences from Tidal - I may have a narrow music interest, as I know others have had issues.

    Andrew,  images upload it is possible?

    for me it is possible only: Insert images fron URL

    I find drag and drop to be the most expedient.  Cut -n- paste is also easy.

     

    You may be in that waiting period  - to reduce risk of spam, a newely acivatred member has to get so many likes on their text post, th4n image posts are enabled.  I think you are there now.
