  3. The new “New Releases for You” feature provides more than just a list of the week’s new releases, Roon instead shows releases that fit your music preferences based on your library and listening habits.
  4. The Valence-powered  “Recommended for You” feature adds personalized album recommendations based on personal library and listener data to Roon album pages
  5. “Artist Play/Composer Play” uses Valance to pick a selection of an artist or composer’s best music by using listener data to find their most popular albums as well as digging the crates for lesser-known gems.
  6. Valence also powers several other improvements within Roon including faster search and higher-quality metadata.
  7. Along with the AI advancements, Roon 1.7 boasts streaming optimizations, android audio improvements, overall performance improvements on Roon OS (30-40% faster library management), and visual improvements.
