Desktop App
- Option to change to lighter skin
- Playcounts and ratings
- Smart playlists
- Re-order and hide categories (eg Genre, Year, Time).
- Choose destination folder for syncing

Sync
- Ability to sync playcounts and ratings between desktop and app
- Eject device from Winamp

I understand the program is in Beta. I really wanted to like it. However, it crashes frequently after syncing, doesn't remember individual playlists to sync, and is somewhat unreliable in locating files from my iTunes library.

I also purchased the Winamp pro app. The playlists don't sync correctly with imported iTunes playlists. The lack of sliding between panes makes it less user-friendly than competitor apps.

Positive notes: Sync Beta consumes less resources than iTunes and Songbird. The app consumes comparable resources to their competitors.

Unfortunately, the stock music player is better and other apps allow what Winamp is targeting to do with sync. I'll take another look at it when it moves out of beta but for now, wouldn't use or recommend it to anyone as their primary player.

To clarify, Winamp automatically synced to my SD card to a Music folder I had created. I created a folder named Test to try out several apps but couldn't use it as a destination folder.

Using OSX 10.7.2, iTunes 10.5, Android 2.3.5 on a Galaxy S2.
