I have not used Rowmote so I can't say good or bad about it. I do use Snatch to control my Mac Mini HTPC and it is just incredible. Being able to configure different remotes for different programs is cool and extremely useful. I use Snatch with Plex, Hulu desktop, and for just surfing the web and such from my couch.

Highly recommended

My firstpick would be Air Mouse. My second is Rowmote. Air Mouse is better at functionality but Rowmote is the best multiple-function remote app in the store. Snatch is OK but the UI is hideous.

Never used snatch, but rowmote pro is amazing.
