I’ve been using exactly that - a Vortexbox server with LMS, Qobuz
plugin, Orangesqueeze on the tablet etc.
Playing music is great and I echo your favourable comments about Qobuz.
But I cannot save a track I listen to and like to a playlist in the
plugin. To create and manage playlists I need to use the Qobuz web
application. 
I like Qobuz because I can listen to lots of new music (through their
own, or other users, playlists) but I would not be able to create these
playlists from scratch as I simply would not know the bands, tracks,
albums etc to look for. Sure, I can search for, say, LED Zeppelin but
before Qobuz i’d never even heard of Cat Empire ! It’s a case of I don’t
know what I don’t know.
I have asked Qobuz if I am able to create playlists via the plugin but
their answer is a flat “not our product so we don’t know”. Maybe they
deny playlist management to trial users.
Regardless I expect I will cough up for their annual Sublime
subscription.
