but I'm guessing folks don't like to pay money to use software that doesn't work with the services they subscribe to.

Especially if the free stuff works with the services they subscribe to AND sound just a good.

I have nothing against ROON. I have heard side by side comparisons and found the sound quality no better than JRiver (which I also don't use).

For me, PcP is fine for streaming TIDAL and QOBUZ to my easy chair, plus it will play music stored on the hard drive of my main system.

And for my main system, a headless Mac Mini running iTunes (free) with Bit Perfect ($10) has yet to be beaten for sound quality by anything else I have tried.

Plus the Mac Mini, being a real computer, with run just about anything.

What am I missing?






First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
