By contrast Meridian were not present in any noticeable way and despite the issues with rendering as explained by Joel here and by the Roon team on the Roon forum silence has been maintained.

No communication on roadmaps is understandable perhaps but no communication on anything either directly or via Premier Dealers is really not good enough.
I agree. Times have moved on and users expect this kind of presence and feedback these days. I worry it doesn't do the brand any favours.
