After using MM Remote more I am even more impressed with it.
It is very polished considering it just came out.
Being able to control the windows system volume is a very nice touch.
The search works very well too. It would be easier if ratings were searchable by stars instead of percent but that is a small point.
When I activate wifi on my Android and start MM remote, it actually starts MM and connects reliably.
Playlists and adding songs to playlists is very well implemented.
I would be very hard pressed to find any improvements without turning this app into bloatware. You could offer a few skins maybe.
It is ready for prime time and you should be charging for it, but it may not be a large market.

Setup was easy, the only problem I had was with my own firewall blocking requests.
Works like a charm.... very responsive and a good control feature set.
Both server and client was written very well written with good instructions.
The only small issue is a practical one ...... wifi sucks the battery life out of android phones (mine at least) so it really isn't practical so you have to remember to turn it off and on where appropriate. Fortunately reactivating wifi seems to reconnect everything reliably
The PC server software is also very compact and simple ...... no bloatware like Itunes uses
Five Stars.
