Generally, you always have access to the non-library version of an album, even if you have it in your library. This is on purpose:

However, the fact that Roon radio is playing the non-library versions even if you have the track/album in your library is annoying, because it means that you can’t heart the track in the radio because it’s not in your library. This is a known issue:
I would like the radio to choose the library version when there is a choice of different versions: Library, Tidal, Qobuz.
I love Roon Radio, it puts in a great mix of stuff I know and stuff I don’t. However, when it plays tracks that I have in my library, it tends to use a Tidal version that isn’t the actual library version, so I can’t just hit the like button, or sometimes it isn’t the best version. It seems odd to play a song I have in my library but from a different source. I don’t want to just limit to my library, because I still want the new music thrown in.
It’s only a minor thing but it is surprising how of…
At least 50% of the tracks I end up listening to comes from roon radio.
Consider the following everyday scenario:
Roon radio’s doing it’s thing (playing)
I hear a track I like…
Hey that’s great, and that’s from an album I have in my library
I proceed to tag it / fav it …
Bummer, I can’t do any of that because Roon radio insists on playing the quobuz version of tracks I have in my library.
I can’t think of any good reason why you’d think it’s preferable to play a track you own in your library…
