I have been tempted to try Roon a couple of times but have baulked at
the considerable effort that I will have to expend to try it and most of
the LMS v Roon comments I have seen end up with LMS being the more
refined system. That said I love the idea of more metadata, album
reviews etc. I also quite like what Plex does for music in this area - I
have Plex installed in order to use it for my ripped DVD collection but
it also looks at my music library even though I don't use it for music.

It seems to me that what Roon and to a lesser extent Plex do with
metadata and a modern HTML5 interface are really all that is missing
from LMS these days but I fear we are not going to get either unless
Logitech were to pick up the baton again. Does anyone know if the Roon
or Plex metadata comes from their own proprietory databases or from open
sources?
