The best part of Roon is how it integrates with Tidal and internet radio.

I subscribe to the "premium" 256kbps stream of JAZZRADIO.com for $70 annually. There are 35+ channels and it sounds pretty good. Each channel has a separate URL that can be entered into Roon as a preset. Artist and title are shown while streaming, so when I hear something I like, I look up the artist and can find results in my library and in Tidal. I can then add any albums I find in Tidal to my library and it is if they are ripped to my hard drive.

Here is a screenshot of the process for "Kenny Burrell", which was playing a few minutes ago on JAZZRADIO.com's "Guitar Jazz" channel. I searched for "Kenny Burrell" and found that I have 24 albums by Kenny Burrell in my library, but Tidal has an additional 49. Note that the track I was listening to changed to Elek Bacsik while I was taking screen shots.
