TL;DR As a Volumio user since 2015, the Premium plan is not worth $64/year (and please do not spend close to ~$1000 on their hardware). Their "Terms and Conditions" for paid plans leave you, the consumer, subject to drastic changes with no recourse. (I paid for a grandfathered plan 4 months ago ($35/year) and they pulled the cord on that plan recently with no communication, no offers to refund or prorate a new plan leaving me on the free plan). Their UI hasn't changed much since 2014 and overall the entire platform remains about as buggy as it was in 2015 (in my opinion). If you have a raspberry pi or other device lying around and the free version suits your needs, awesome. I'm all for open-source projects charging subscription fees but with that comes responsibilities which, as a company, they have not made a priority. r*oon is too expensive but volumio's Premium plan and hardware options are cost-prohibitive comparatively, for what you get. It's time for better options to surface. They're right around the corner ;)
