Qobuz USA

[PHC1]

Looks like they are selecting Beta testers for Qobuz US. I received an email to be selected as a Beta tester. I am not in any hurry and perfectly happy with Roon/Tidal at the moment but once Qobuz launches I may look into joining as well at some point. Shouldn't be much longer I guess for the Qobuz to be up and running from the US platform.

I received the same email. I would be willing to look further into their offerings if it’s available on Roon.

I have looked into that and so far I see no plans of integration between Roon and Qobuz

I received the email as well. I just filled it out and submitted.

I follow a couple Qobuz threads in different forums and all indicators suggest a Roon integration is already in the works. Roon will not publicly confirm, but it seems likely based on what I've heard and read. I used the Qobuz trial (registered from the UK) until it ended and preferred it over Tidal.

That's very good news if true.

I got the email too but it's a non-starter for me now that I'm Roon/Tidal with a dedicated Intel Nuc server.

I'm so done with all the computer crap. If anyone is out there wanting to get into computer audio but doesn't want to deal with laptops and downloading updates and drivers and on and on...Roon/Tidal/Nuc (or maybe small green computer or the Roon nucleus) is THE way to go.

If Qobuz integrates with Roon later, I'll evaluate it.

I feel so left out. No e-mail for me!

Both Roon and Qobuz have said they’re working on it, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

I got the email also, but they still don’t have all their licensing in place for the US, so the selection is not as broad yet as the French site. I’ll keep my French account for now, but may shift over if they get their act together with Roon.
