I don't want to sound harsh, but reverb effects? What for? Why not plugging in 
VSTs?
1-3 make sense for me, I'd question the rest.
What about basics like searching FF / RW through the track?

Regarding reverb effects: since CDs are mastered for listening through speakers 
in a 
room, you will loose the room effect when listening through earphones. I have a 
player for Windows Mobile with this feature, and it really improves the 
listening 
experience. I was also sceptical at first, but got hooked.

Xfeed: this is an effect that makes listening through earphones more natural, 
and it 
reduces listening fatigue. It doesn't colour the sound in any way. Google it to 
find 
out more.

Volume limit: just to prevent the player from accidentally blowing out our ears 
and 
to keep a consistent volume (in conjuction with replay gain).

Tag based library: I prefer this - it lets you search by genre, artist or 
album, and 
you don't have to manually put your albums into the right folders.

Streaming: since we have limited space on a phone, it is nice to access the 
complete 
library anywhere. Streaming, like in the Subsonic app, let you do this.
