I have a large library of tracks, both CD quality and HD, so I use Roon to stream my local library to my Sonos endpoints.

I also use the Sonos apps directly to stream Sirius XM (digital audio streaming in North America, local FM streaming, my kids use Airplay 2 and Spotify to stream directly to their Sonos endpoints as well).

I don't have any experience with Bluesound.

The convenience of streaming to Sonos endpoints is nice. Having access to stream Spotify and Apple Music in addition to TIDAL makes me keep Sonos around, also their endpoints are affordable for bathrooms and kids bedrooms.
