Who is Roon?


This is an organization that has developed software that consists of a Interface overlay to keep track of Music from streaming services. And create narratives about tons of albums. It’s amazing in all that it does. I have a lifetime membership.

They have a forum that provides assistance from others including all kinds of technical service which is really challenging to deal with should you have problems. They don’t offer phone service.

my question is is this some operation that operates out of someone’s basement? Do they employ thousands of people? Is it a nonprofit organization? Are they doing well financially? Is there a Mr. Roon?

Who are these people that have coordinated this service. Does anybody know anything about this organization?

I know it’s only January, but I nominate this one for thread of the year…..

@ozzy62 , would that award be applicable for the entire A'gon collection of discussions, or would it only apply to the subsection of cryptic threads that have nothing to do with amps or preamps but are mysteriously posted in that forum anyway? 

"Roonies"?

"Rooners"...better....;)

How about Roonmates?

 

There is always roon for growth.

I AM ROON YOU SHALL ALL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME!

 

 

Meh that sounded funnier in my head.

That was amusing, @jond .

@wsrrsw , you are rooning this thread, which has already turned into the roonation of us all.

This has gone on long enough--go to your roon and don't come out until you can be serious.  

. . . however, this evening I am still intending to re-read The Rhoon Of The Ancient Mariner.

Ooh, I’m gonna be in there a while.

What if I have to go to the bathroon?

Ah, that made me think of a song title and lyrics by the Beatles, and it was NOT the one about us all living in a yellow latrine.

But regardless, @thecarpathian , if you truly have to go real bad, I’d say go and do what you have to do, as unlikely as it might be, I would not want you to induce a medical crisis that might require a trip to the emergency roon.

She came in through the bathroon window

Ah yes, flashbacks galore.

Anyway, if you are going to be in there for a while, I’d suggest bringing some good reading material in with you. It is probably a depressing read, but John Bolton’s The Roon Where It Happened might be interesting.
