Same here . I had Aurender and then purchased a new dac so went with Roon. No regrets -bought the lifetime
For me it is more user friendly and I really enjoy its integration features which I’ don’t remember the Aurender app having. the Aurender app while good did not have anywhere near the features you get with Roon. Roon’s library feature is much better.
When you play an album you can see all the credited musicians. You can explore their offerings by clicking them. It’s a great way to explore. I have both qobiz and tidel
