I have been wondering about this issue myself.
I canceled a credit card and didn't chaenge the Tidal subscription to the new Card immediately. Tidal went dormant for a bit. With the Tidal songs and albums intermingled with my own, ROON turned into a crime scene with throughout playlist and tracks in "Start Radio".
Wondering if there's an elegant way to purge all Tidal meta data out of ROON. I have a feeling I wont be suing Tidal forever.
Follow Ups:
I ran Tidal under Roon for several years. When Qobuz became available in the US, I ran both together for a few months. Then I cancelled Tidal and stayed with Qobuz. My experience was seamless throughout. Tidal was there in Roon, co-mingled with Qobuz and my local files, until it wasn't. Once I cancelled, it all vanished with no residue. Which is what I wanted and expected. That was almost five years ago, so maybe things have changed.
If you aren't aware, there is a large, active Roon online forum that is frequented by Roon staff and developers. Link below. It is kinda like the Asylum in that there is a wealth of good information contributed by smart, experienced users, but you sometimes have to sort through a lot of horsesh*t to find it. For questions specific to Roon, it's a better resource.
. . . in theory, practice and theory are the same; in practice, they are different . . .
I had the opposite experience but maybe I didn't wait long enough. When I cancelled Tidal the Tidal albums remained visible in my Roon Library. I manually deleted each and every one of them. I suppose they would have disappeared on their own had I waited a while ??
Interesting. You could see them and delete them in Roon, but I assume that without an active Tidal account you couldn't play them. Was there some indicator that they were inaccessible?
Did you try the Library Maintenance tool in Roon? I run it every now and then when I think of it.
I think your suspicion is correct. They would have been purged out of your library with time.

It's been a while since I cancelled my Tidal subscription but to answer your questions as best I remember it......When I cancelled Tidal the Tidal logo'd albums remained visible in my Library and in my Playlists. But when I tried playing music from those albums from my Playlist it would say something like 'that track is no longer available' OR it would simply skip the Tidal track and go on to the next one that was not from Tidal.
I run Library maintenance now and then but I don't recall if I did that when I cancelled Tidal.
In any case, the fact that those Tidal albums remained visible in my Library was actually helpful. I took a few screen shots capturing those Tidal albums then searched for those same albums in Qobuz. Just about every album I had from Tidal was available in Qobuz.
P.S. In my previous post I said, "I suppose they would have disappeared on their own had I waited a while ??" . I now wonder if this has something to do with Roon's album art cache ?? Could be. I saw the album art but the music wasn't there to be played.

there's some fashion of rescanning to update current subscription favorites.
