• after a bit over a month I am totally sold on PlexAmp and will not be renewing my Roon subscription:

    pros:

    • can access my music anywhere, not just at home meaning I can also drop the terrible iCloud Music Library
    • cheaper
    • can use the same app for podcasts
    • iOS/iPad apps are better than Roon for usability

    cons:

    • 'roon ready' is nicer but airplay works mostly as well
    • less features, that I never use

    Now I'm mad I bought an Intel NUC mainly for Roon, could have run plex on something much cheaper.

  • Just shows it's horses for courses. I've got Roon and Plex and barely use Plex. I am at home a bit more at the moment like a lot of us but I've never even tried Plexamp at home.

  • If you've got an NUC up and running Roon rock you might have some luck advertising it on the Roon forum. Some people don't like fiddling around building them.
