Doubletwist is by far the best media player in the market right now, but that is not to say it is perfect.
Let's start with the good stuff.
Pros:
1. Has a great PC and Mac companion app for easy syncing.
2. Free
3. Has a now playing tab constantly in the bottom to easily get back to what your listening to.
4. VERY clean interface
5. Is a true media player has Podcasts and Video playing too, not just music.
6. Podcast syncing! this is a great help and very convenient.
7. Video player is simple and clean.
8. Will probably have widget soon

Cons:
1. No widget or lock controls currently. One important thing in a media player is being able to control is from the homescreen or from the lockscreen for a quick song change.
2. When widget is introduced app may become paid.
3. Desktop app sometimes glitches with multiple copies or sync fail.
4. When clicking an artist, slbums drop down instead of opening new page. Maybe this is just a personal taste, but i think a new page is a much cleaner look.

Overall, a very good application. In my opinion, best media player on the market, and obviously worth the free download, and most likely worth the money when the widget and new version come out.
