I believe the Roon library is stored on your Core computer. I am backing it up now before I install the 1.3 update.

Yeah, that figures. But, in what format, and is the data exportable in some standard format? One key feature of JRiver is that the tags are stored BOTH in its internal "library" file for efficient searching AND in the media files themselves in the standard tagging format widely used for that format, including any custom fields I might have defined. JRiver also allows for export of tag data in several standard formats, like XML, text, etc.
So, I was able to establish these essential facts about JRiver, its structure and how it worked well before I committed to it years ago. With Roon, none of these questions have been answered to my satisfaction. It is much more of a proprietary set of secrets. Apparently, I need to make a leap of faith to get on the Roon bandwagon and believe they will handle all my problems for me. But, clearly, they don't.
I am not doubting that Roon makes terrific sense for many pop/rock listeners and handles tagging issues automatically with an excellent GUI for search and playback. But, for me, it does not come close to providing what I need at a minimum for my hi rez Mch classical library.
If you are happy with JRiver stick with it. I have both Roon and JRiver.
