Bluesound have adopted Roon transport protocol RAAT maybe it is time for Meridian to do the same?

Sooloos streams only to Meridian endpoints and Roon streams to Meridian endpoints because the Roon team developed the Sooloos protocol, that support could be dropped at any time.

Meridian's apparent refusal to adopt RAAT (Roon Advanced Audio Transport) seems more political than technical, if they adopted RAAT then the possibility you discuss of other manufacturers endpoints on Sooloos becomes possible, or they could shutdown Sooloos and save the associated 'development' and support costs, or run Sooloos as the default streamer and Roon as an optional additional cost streaming provider.
