Re: The (in)Complete Guide to AddOns
I'm partial to WoWInterface due to the combination of features, the way they treat their authors, and site design/layout. I find it personally less.... well crowded and noisy... than Curse. Just personal preference. I also find that there is great interaction with addon developers on WoWInterface's "comments" tab for each addon, and I've been able to report issues, find solutions, and make suggestions for features there.
You will sometimes find an addon on either WoWInterface or Curse that is not hosted on one of the other sites, but it is quite rare.
I very much disliked how WoWMatrix ran their business, so I do not use that service, but there are other solutions for automatic updates. Curse has a client do do that, and WoWInterface has one in beta called MMO Minion. Now I have not tried it, but it's free version is fully featured and auto updates... unlike curse's free version update if I understand correctly. I don't use auto-updaters personally, I want to choose when and if I update addons, but for those that have a ton of them, this is another option.
