An Idea for Gathering Metadata Corrections

Create a window, accessible from virtually every Roon window, that will collect metadata corrections from any user. When selected, this popup window will:

  1. Scrape the offending album and/or composition information as well as the user’s login and contact info;
  2. Provide a text field for the user to enter suggested changes.

Periodically, Roon would onsend these reports to its providers. It would have the information needed to monitor how well those providers are making the necessary changes to the metadata.

This scheme would eliminate some of the friction a user faces trying to report errors. It would provide Roon with a low-cost way to upgrade the quality of the metadata it uses. And, of course, the providers may have extra incentive to make changes for a major customer.
