Pros
1. Jackson is now freeware (since v 1.33) 2. Automatic beat matching that actually works, even on songs without a fixed tempo 3. You can change the structure of songs on the fly - great for live remixing 4. Nice built in effects
Cons
1. Maybe too complex for beginners 2. You can record your sets - but you can't save them (so you can improve them in later sessions) 3. Limited to only two decks 4. A silly name ("Jackson"? lol) 5. Wasn't updated since May 2007
