Streamer apps critical


I don't understand why high end manufacturers release streamers with terrible apps. One of the strongest advantages of the Nodes is the BluOS app. It's simple and effective,  though not full-featured. I understand the Innuos app is great. Not all of us like much less want to pay the cost of ROON and the online apps, like USB audio Player are clunky. I would love to see a paid-for version of BluOS or other manufacturers license a common but customized app, much as early versions of Windows were available from Dell, Gateway, Compaq and so many others.

The Cambridge Audio Stream Magic app generally works well.  Recently there was an update that screwed it up for about 2 weeks and I reverted back to their earlier app which wasn’t perfect but was at least functional.  Then a new update solved everything for Stream Magic 

Absolutely.  The app frequently defines the experience.  I used to have a Bryston BDP-3 but ditched it due to the terrible software web based program it relied upon
