I think that this may indeed become a solid replacement for iTunes. The biggest problem that is readily visible is that it needs to have a dark theme available. At present the light theme is repulsive for those of us who use it in dimmed studios or at night. The pricing should also be revised. I'm willing to pay for a solid iTunes replacement such as this, but to get real acceptance, it should (at the very least) have a freemium version available. One thing that is bothersome is that a more complete integration with iTunes should be done so that it retains the iTunes library synchronization. That is, if music is added to Swinsian, the songs are also added to iTunes and vice versa. Some of us still need this functionality for various reasons (such as sharing music with others who use iTunes). In my opinion we'll get to 4 stars at least if we can get a dark theme.
