In all areas of my life, except Roon. Still minimal expense considering I had much of this already and some was given to me.

I am not the smartest guy around, but I am pretty sure Harman didnât acquire Roon to shut it down.

Three cores and subs would tell me three different abodes, which in turn would tell me you are loaded, there is usually very little to worry about when loaded 
I cannot see a cost effective solution without Roon in the picture which covers all my end points. I am having a play with Plex amp, that seems to have come on a ways since I last looked
One house, one car, no airplanes, boats, motorcycles, sports cars, race cars, swimming pools, guitars, drum kits, 7 shirts, 5 pants, one pair of shoes, etc. Never assume about other people.
I have Audirvana 3.5, that works very well, and Apple Music. If Roon goes away, and it wonât, I would just install Windows on my Nucleus. I already have Roon, Audirvana, and Apple Music on my Dell and Mac Mini.

Careful, Jim - or youâre going to find yourself extremely busy here if the worst should ever come to the worst (which it wonât!)
Maybe for 30 minutes. Everything already works with Apple Music and Audirvana in my setup except the Nucleus.

Does anyone know if a Roon Nucleus Rev B will run Windows 11? I donât think Windows 10 is available anymore.
Its just a regular PC so yes it can and will easily meet the specs required.
But, not all âregular PCâsâ meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11.
I think I found my twin⌠but can you say if it is 7 different shirts and 5 different pants, or 7 pieces of the same shirt and 5 pieces of the same pant⌠then I will know for sure.
Jokes aside, before Roon, I had and still have Apple Music. If Roon went, it will be sad, but life will continue.

Looks like the the board doesnt support TPM 2.0 so no it wont run windows 11. A series 8 Nuc can be updated, not sure these can.

In that case, I would just try to sell it. I paid $1119. Someone could put Linux on it and use it for something.
Big corps, with few exceptions like M$oft, almost always acquire small companies in good faith, but way too often things do not work out, oopsâŚ
Lets 
that this one escapes this fate.
Or keep the sexy box , buy a NUC and swap the motherboard then it will run Windows (I think !!)

Maybe not close it down but maybe strip out what they want (RAAT ?, ARC ??) and leave the rest to rot
I donât think they bought Roon because they were interested in the 250k users wellbeing
Cynical maybe âŚ

Buy a Harman reciever or similar, and get Roon lifetime. Probably locked to the hardware, or an extra fee to move the server somewhere else.
Probably other brands will be allowed to offer equal options. Just pay Harman royalty.
I hope this open for more streaming services as well.
I donât mind a RoonTV app.
What other technology would we like to see being added and developed?
They are owned by Samsung and they have bunch of US audio companies. Why I donât consider them an audio company more of a TV and appliances manufacturer. So why good question. I personally donât care for there products I went LG.

Hereâs just hoping that my lifetime subscription purchased in 2018 will not be trifled with in any way. Otherwise, good luck and keep up the great work!
Iâm still waiting for them to send me my three pairs of vintage JBL L-100âs, one for each lifetime subscription. Actually, one pair would be plenty. Send my other two pairs to someone else.
Note: I had this poster framed and on my wall before Roon announced they were bought by Harman. My Pioneer HPM-60âs were designed by Bart Locanthi who also designed the JBLâs.
