That BPM seems pretty much like a more visually appealing GURU. The workflow seems nice, but I definitely wouldn't get it. It's just a virtual drum machine with nice lil editing features. That's nothing you can't do in most DAWs like FL Studio, Cubase, Logic,Reaper, ProTools, Ableton Live, etc....
If you like using blocks to do your drums, FL Studio is easy as shit. Gotta use the piano roll though to get into finer detail. Native Instruments Battery is probably your better choice IMO if you want a drum sampler with hi-end editing.
The great thing about the Akai MPC series is it's sampling capabilities. I'm sure these plugins can mimic the sound editing and arrangement the same if not better, but I don't think they offer the same sampling greatness.
