"Useful non-Apple sync app"
Version: DoubleTwist 3.0.0
Pros
Double twist looks like an iTunes knockoff, and to some extent it is. I find it useful for syncing my Android with material on my macbook. And it's free, at least for the cabled version.
Cons
Not fully functional with Apple products; free version requires a USB cable.
Summary
Highly recommended for those of us with cross-platform needs. Docked a star for incomplete mac functionality and not making the wireless version free.

"1.0b19 does not support podcast subscriptions on mac"
Version: DoubleTwist 1.0b19
Pros
It's not iTunes
Cons
Seriously, what kind of product doesn't offer podcast subscriptions? You can search for podcasts within the application, but are then met with a "coming soon" message (my personal pet peeve).
Summary
It may sound like the salve for all wounds, but if they would open source their player it would dramatically increase the odds that someone else would add podcast subscription support. Because it cannot be THAT hard. As it stands now, the doubleTwist app for Mac just feels like a second-rate citizen and leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

"Continual background disk access = uninstalled"
Version: DoubleTwist 1.0b16
Pros
I wanted to synch one of my iTunes play lists to another MP3 player. The synch worked, despite app being VERY slow to import play lists (I actually resulted to deleting all but one of my iTunes play lists as a result of the poor performance).
Cons
The disappointment for me was that this app installed a auto started background service which CONTINUALLY polled my hard disk (without any indication as to what it was doing); I rapidly removed the application.
Summary
Promising but not quite there yet.

"Works great, fast & easy way to browse Amazon MP3s"
Version: DoubleTwist 1.0b14
Pros
Works with my 8GB Sony Walkman NWZ-S718F.
Cons
Doesn't have the Home Sharing feature of iTunes I'd like to have the option to have it autosync music on multiple computers in a home network. Not a big deal though.

"Does exactly what it said it would..."
Version: DoubleTwist 1.0b14
Pros
Simple drag and drop functionality make it super easy to add your digital media to your smart phone/BB/etc.
Cons
Haven't tested it enough to find any yet.
Summary
A must download for anyone looking to add more than mp3s to your smart phone. It's FREE people, def give it a shot. I've seen similar software costing $40.
