I wondered myself, how can you keep the Sooloos software team still at Meridian. Entrepreneurs needs "impossible"/ambitious goals for world domination. wink

The Roon software will no doubt be very succesful and we're back to having Meridian produce the best possible Audio/Video endpoints.

Meridian had probably some sleepless nights about, should we create a super software company but the salesmodel doesn't cover that. We pay for the hardware, not hardware+subscription. Although that can and might change if you have something like a Roon software "musicserver service".

There is one thing I wonder about though. Meridian could easily do this and that and snap into a car audio system when they had these people. What do they do now when the next business crossbranding is thought about. Today we can't argue that an agile software team is king, but how do you nurture them?
