DS Homebrew Marketplace for all Custom Rom loaded Windows Phone
Market for Custom Rom is getting stronger than what it was few months back. First we had custom roms from DFT Team, then came the Bazaaar Marketplace and now the Deepshining Team, who developed custom rom for HD 7 and Mozart, made their Homebrew Marketplace available for all Windows Phone which has custom roms loaded or have the privilege to install XAP from browser (First came in for DFT Rom).
Remember this does not remove the inbuilt marketplace but works in parallel with the official marketplace app.
What does this app do ?
Its gives you access to all Homebrew APP which is getting developed at the XDA forum or by the team and also you get access to some of the apps which are usually not available for all the phones, one such example is Nokia Transport app which was recently leaked for all Windows Phone. All the XAP files come directly from the DS servers and is maintained by them.
Regular Unlocked Phones :
For Windows Phone missing Root privilege, this app still works if you have regular unlocked phones but, then you can only use it to install wallpapers if not anything else.

Is this app better than the Bazaar App ?
This app rocks over the Bazaar app because of much better implementation of the user interface. It’s all metro and much neatly described and categorized but, then Bazaar App comes with a desktop tool which allows you to install app on regular unlocked phone.
State of Homebrew Marketplace :
As of now its all distributed with a lot of people making efforts for it. I would seriously suggest the developers to centralize this by creating what Cydia is today. Let the Homebrew devs register and maintain their app and in future bring in paid homebrew system. I am sure there are many people who would love to pay for some custom apps, Folders and Battery status apps come to my mind first.
