"SCUMWARE : STAY AWAY"
Version: Miro 0.9.2
Pros
I didn't keep it on the machine long enough to find any
Cons
This product is scumware that will corrupt and destroy your files. Do NOT download it.
I downloaded it, and it immediately corrupted ALL of my video AND MUSIC files. I uninstalled the scumware, but the files are still corrupted. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT EVERY FILE I NOW CREATE IS STILL CORRUPTED, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE SUPPOSEDLY "UNINSTALLED" THE SCUMWARE FROM MY MACHINE.
Please, AVOID THIS AT ALL COSTS

"Practically Perfect"
Version: Miro 0.9.2
Pros
I like how it deletes the videos you've downloaded after 5 days unless you save them- great for conserving precious disk space
Cons
The interface is a bit confusing sometimes

"The perfect video app"
Version: Miro 0.9.2
Pros
Democracy Play can play any video, let's you organize, download torrents, download RSS feeds, etc. It's everything you want in a very elegant package.

"The Firefox for Video"
Version: Miro 0.9.2
Pros
Simple, fast, intuitive. Sort of like Tivo for a computer. Getting better all the time (new versions get released often).
Cons
Simcityman's review sorta sucked -- Democracy isn't perfect (still some bugs), but it's a really awesome way to get videos (in the same way an RSS newsreader is perfect for reading blogs).

"sucked"
Version: Miro 0.9.2
Pros
Not much other then being able to find videos that you can already find at the actual website itself.
Cons
Slow, the video's as previously stated take forever to download. All videos must be downloaded and cannot be streamed. It will also override your existng players.

"Its a diamond in the rough"
Version: Miro 0.9.0.2
Pros
Good,it's a diamond in the rough.
Cons
Needs a bath!Open source or another software company that uses the idea,if its going to be used on a large scale it needs its initial content cleaned up big time and some deals made with the big players.

"Awesome concept, but still half-baked"
Version: Miro 0.9.0.2
Pros
Smooth interface, useful features, easy access to fresh and popular content.
Cons
A huge memory hog, it keeps sucking up RAM until your system says 'uncle'. Wait for 1.0, folks, otherwise your experience with this version might sour you on it for good.
