We feel that just like you don't use a different browser for every web site you visit (Firefox to read the NY Times, IE to stream Hulu, Chrome to browse YouTube, etc) you shouldn't have to use iTunes for Apple products, Nokia software for Nokia phones, Sony software for Sony products, etc. The typical household today has many such devices and there is a need for a simple and powerful software that connects them."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1241035871.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>doubleTwist has updated their software to 2.0 which sports performance improvements, a better interface, and of course, more device support. For those of you not familiar with doubleTwist, it is a media manager and syncing program. It behaves much like iTunes, Windows Media Player and the like, but with support for a wide variety of devices including phones, the PSP and even the Kindle. I honestly cannot say that it is the greatest thing since sliced silicon wafers, but it does provide you with another option when syncing your media to go, even with multiple devices and they do provide an easy way to share media with your peers. I think it comes down to personal preference; there are already lots of programs, or combination of programs that do what doubleTwist does, but some are clunkier than others, so if you're not happy with how you load up your playlists, this might be worth a shot.</p>
