Does Roon care about non-streamers anymore?

I have a plumber I use. The first time he visited, to give me an estimate, he told me what he thought about our home (too large, we could have spent less by living in his neighborhood). The second time he came, he needed to leave our new laundry sink in our garage. This time he told me what he thought of my cars (both are too expensive, why would I buy a sports car with only two seats). The third time he came over, he needed to access the ceiling in my listening room. Yup, now he had an opinion about my stereo system (speakers too big, I need a CD player).

Yet I still use him. Why? He does great plumbing work for reasonable prices.

My point is, who cares what @danny or anyone else at Roon thinks of your musical taste? Maybe you only listen to recordings of steam engines. So what. If Roon lets you do what you want, who cares what they think about you? You pay Roon to do whatever it is you do with it, not to give you advice on music (try Gramophone magazine for such advice).
