I really wish Roon would consider adding Apple Music streaming.
That would require Apple‘s cooperation, which isn’t happening. Nothing Roon can do without access.

None of the major services (Spotify, Apple, Amazon) are interested in partnering with Roon. They all want to connect directly with the customer for marketing and business reasons.I really wish Roon would consider adding Apple Music streaming.
That makes sense.None of the major services (Spotify, Apple, Amazon) are interested in partnering with Roon. They all want to connect directly with the customer for marketing and business reasons.
I am not sure but maybe Roon 2.0 would be guess.Any ideas?
That seems to be the most popular rumor out there. There's an active discussion on the Roon ForumsRumors are Roon mobile. Not sure how that would work. But whatever it is, I am excited.
I have Roon and Audirvāna. I prefer there SQ of Audirvana but Roon is more convenient and the difference is not great.Has anybody compared Roon SQ versus Pure Music and/or Audirvana Plus SQ?
I’ve been using that unit for the past couple years as as mobile Roon server when I travel. Works remarkably well.I came across this little cheap, mini, fanless PC on Amazon and decided to try it as a Roon Bridge. Out of the box it comes preloaded with a pretty optimized version of Windows 11 Pro that passed DPC latency checker with flying colors. I connected it to a USB DAC and I now have a little Roon Streamer for $250...did I mention it's fanless and the size of a cell phone? I'm certain this would even be able to run Roon Server, which could make it your core. It's been streaming music non-stop and flawlessly for the past 48 hours, so I can give it a strong endorsement.

Edit: on sale for prime day!
They just came out with an upgraded unit (same price) that is PD compatible, so you can even power it off a battery pack now. These things are insanely useful and what impressed me was how optimized they were right out of the box. No bloat, and double digit low DPC latency numbers. Ideal for realtime audio streaming over USB.I’ve been using that unit for the past couple years as as mobile Roon server when I travel. Works remarkably well.

Super interesting. I really do hope it's roon mobile. But I can't say that's what I'm getting from the teasers. To me they imply something about music videos. Who knows, maybe we'll get both...It shows ppl enjoying music outdoors with Roon so definitely it’s Roon going mobile. I would be disappointed if it doesn’t turn out to be.
