The future of Roon for non-streaming users?

[Tobias_Imbach]

While it is clear to me that the future of Roon and music listening in general is streaming, I still love the fact that I can combine downloaded music and streams in the same software.

To me, this is quite a severe problem:

Clean Up Library should list the "deleted" files it proposes to remove

I know this is an old thread, but the more I use Roon, the more it’s bothering me, that I lose control over my music collection. I want to gather plays, I want Roon to learn, what I listen to, have my own music … but when Tidal deletes every two weeks some albums, and I have no idea, what has been deleted, it makes for a very disappointing experience. Once or twice, I found later a much played album removed from my library, lost all plays, but the the album was available to be added to my librar…

So, currently I use streaming to discover new music, but once I want to own an album, I’ll buy it on Bandcamp or somewhere else. Having access to locally stored music is a crucial feature of Roon to me, and I can not imagine, that they will neglect this, as the OP feared.
