I think one needs to be an insider to figure this one out…

New Roon 2.0 on the 35th day of the 18th month! Or is that the 18th day of the 35th month? Or maybe they are just optimizing for a very wide Roon?

Really exciting. :stuck_out_tongue:

Maybe 2.0 is going to include support for 35kbs/18bit music files, or I suppose it could be 18kbs/35bit; or both. So many possibilities. :smile:

I hope it is not meant as post-factual and Roon is now part of the cult…?! I guess not :wink:

Perhaps Valence will automagically personalize the UI differently for each user? (Hmmm, haven’t heard much about Valence for a while now.)

Loosely based on a Henry David Thoreau quotation.

The Video is showing people having fun outdoors. May this be a hint for a „portable“ roon, acces your library when you’re on the go?

It’s clearly showing a Data Lake for us to store our music in the cloud.
