[QUOTE="RivaSA, post: 639819, member: 95936"] I am not sure how you can really compare the two. If what you are looking for is a quick and painless way of listing all your apps videos and music then use iTunes or WMC. If like me you feel that that is not even close to what you want and then start looking at alternatives. Pound for Pound I belive the Mediaportal is the "man" these few specific reasons. 1. There are more options available to the non-technical person than any other solution that I have come across. 2. It is highly customisable, even for stupid poeple like me! 3. It is being developed by real poeple who consume food and drink like you and me instead of some "nana" in a green and black matrix type inviroment keeping himself ticking with a sludge type substance called "Java".
