It is much better than the old one. Some minor bugs but not really disturbing in my point of view, after all it is just a computer program. I tried to remove radio channels but it didn't work but after resetting the whole iPad they where gone. Can I add radio channels or do I do that in control Mac/Pc? Does anybody know or it just me?
A very big step forward compared to the old app, especially when you are looking for classical music albums.
I run it on iPad 1 but I feel that it works very well but I haven't compared it to the iPad 2 so a little bit blind in that point of view.

Must say that having tag, credit and review info in the app is excellent.
E.g. Look at an album, note the drummer, swim in other albums that the drummer is on etc. This is nice to do and previously only really available on the control screens AFAIK.
E.g 10000 Maniac album, view credits, click Merchant as composer, focus on here and see a Joan Baez album as she covers on of the songs. Nice !
Zone linking is working for me. I can link and unlink zones without problems once I worked out the correct sequence. I am using an Ensemble as the core maybe that is the difference
Same here. I have two zones linked on my MC600 and the app handled it without a problem.
Displaying the cover art in vertical columns is bizarre - completely counter-intuitive to anybody used to to their C10/C15. Surely at least there should be a toggle, so the user can select?
The slow loading of images detracts hugely from the experience of the app - it feels clunky and awkward, like web 1.0 in about 1998.
Having greyed out squares for missing images isn't good enough either - I haven't quite understood the discussions about why some images I have added in the normal way via Control Mac and which appear on my C10 are missing, but obviously they shouldn't be.
Worst of all, the app crashes intermittently. A couple of other people have mentioned this but presumably not everyone's having this problem - but still, other apps run fine on my iPad so why doesn't this?
In truth, if this were any other app, I would try it and discover how clunky it is, and then give up and delete it.
It's a huge disappointment because this really is not up to scratch for a release from a high-end organisation.

Images are slow to load, agree on the grey squares, app crashes (iPad goes back to Home Screen, the app is still running if you double click the home button or do the four finger swipe up gesture) all the time when browsing artwork, when used in exploring mode it hasn't crashed, just selecting an album (any) and pressing the back button can and does cause this, could happen after one album and maybe after 20, also happens just browsing, this makes it practically unuseable, I have done a restore on the iPad and also set it up as a new iPad with no apps, iCloud off and location services off basically trying to free as many resources as possible, still crashes, I downloaded an app to show memory useage and it shows around 60Mb free most of the time, Sooloos MC200 is running latest firmware.
