      And Roon wanting your credit card for a free trial is just scaaaaaammy. Wanna bet they make you call to cancel?

        They don't. It's easy. Perfectly reasonable to ask for your payment info first.

        Every other piece of trialware I've used has never required this.

        Requiring money upfront before you have to cancel is scammy. Adobe, Microsoft, etc. don't do this, what makes them think this software is so special they have to lock in your credit card?

        That alone makes me not want to buy from them.

        Dr F. It annoyed me too. I went ahead anyway and enjoyed my time with it. Yes you do need to email to cancel. They ask for feedback when you do. If you give some honest critique they seem to extend the trial for another 15 days or so.

      Could JRiver for Mac be any more janky and ugly? Clearly this was written by Linux nerds that really don't care.

        It's just so awful. I don't get why people think using non-native UI and controls work? It just makes me want to write my own app and completely (and easily) dominate this market.

        While I definitely feel the UI is lacking, they are working on it and a good skin really helped for me. But if you think you can fix it, please, I'm sure we'd all love your uber-product. Can't wait to see you do it "easily."

        An uber product, no, but something just more usable. I'm not going to do it, but man, it's amazing how anyone can think a non-native UI could feel ok. I mean, even iTunes and Finder used a non-cocoa UI and changed it. But all the UI controls are there, they are just duplicating them.
