Thanks for you help and your responses. You're right about DoubleTwist, DominoSlave. It is a joke. I can't understand why people bang on about it. Since then I've tried linux and there are a few good mediaplayers that managed to sync with little or no issue to my htc, but weren't slick enough (Banshee was equally slow). I also used mediamonkey but I didn't feel I got full potential out of it.
Winamp has been the best solution so far and I particularly like the autofill feature which gives me a nice range of things every now and then. But since I use iTunes for general listening and browsing through my collection, I'd like to find something that incorporates it with my HTC so I will give Salling a try.
In a response to Warghost, I don't find the HTC that bad. In fact, I really like it. There are some other audio players available on the market. I just like the way the standard one appears on the locked screen and allows easy control (and is very aesthetically pleasing too). The machine just needs a bit of tweaking with the mp3 player and it would be perfect.
And to Canhead64, the majority of my music is just standard mp3. So I didn't understand the problem.
I'm happy using Winamp, but I will be trying Salling in the future - but I'm personally not a fan of programs that only let me transfer playlists rather than music of my choice through selection (not drag and drop - how prehistoric) outside of iTunes, I have tried some in the past and they weren't very good. I'd like to see something within iTunes or a mediaplayer. Maybe this one will be a lot slicker though from what I've read.
Thanks again for your help.
