What happens with the lifetime subscribers if the company folds or is sold?

[Henry_McLeod (Henry)]

A clear statement has been given. It is in this very thread.

The Roon team was formed out of the ashes of the Sooloos team, founded over 10 years ago. We still run infrastructure for the Sooloos users that we first signed up in 2006. We are in this for the long haul. We haven’t taken external funding, and we’ve turned down buy-out offers already. This company, this product, is our lives, our love, and we plan to be here for a very long time.

Obviously I can’t tell what will happen in the future, but it would leave a very poor taste in my mouth if our lifetimers were not taken care of… for life

And:

Yah, I get it. So right now, the application obviously logs in to our cloud services, for both metadata and membership checking.

In the unlikely event that we could not maintain those services, we would release one last build that would kill those dependencies, so you could continue to use the application without our infrastructure as a requirement. Obviously the functionality would be reduced, but it would work.

These statements were made back in October 2015 and nothing has changed as far as we know. On the basis of that I went for lifetime part of the way through my first year.
