Rooted:
* Warranty is voided, FYI, Motorola introduced a technique that tracks the rooting status of a phone, so theoretically, the warranty voids the second it's rooted
* Boost performance
* Use advanced apps that control hardware
* take screenshots easily
* Allow device to be controlled (like remote desktop)
* Remove bloatware (browser, clock, email app, useless stuff)
* move apps to SD
...
Unrooted:
* can install apps that requires unrooted devices (kinda wierd!)
