Audio server recommendation? (lm.madiator.cloud)

Hi guys I’m looking for hosting own audio server. So far I have run Roon and Plex. Server I want to host is on remote machine and want to stream to iOS, Android TV and Desktop. Would be great if it also would let me organize my library (that part might also be separate app)

Roon is expensive, but if you are a serious music fan, it’s 100% worth it.

I describe it to others as like talking to a super knowledgeable music store employee. It knows so much about each track, each musician, each band… cross-referencing them all, so you can go down a rabbit hole of hyperlinks learning about the music. It seamlessly mixes playlists across streaming and locally stored music. It does a decent job of streaming around the house to Apple, android, and audiophile devices. They just added an app that enables remote listening to your locally stored music.

Love Roon. I also have Navidrome in my server but found out a docker image of RoonServer and my gosh, I love it. I need a webapp to control it from my Linux desktop, otherwise, perfect (and expensive).

I have active Roon subscribtion though most issue is that Remote connection works clunky. The desktop app is only on windows and also Siri on iOS do not support song selection with voice commands.
