I've tried Maq, and I use it as a compliment to SOAP, but I didn't like that the output was all processed for me. I wanted to see qualities and repetitiveness and read IDs and pair distances across the genome, and the pile-up view doesn't show that, and I'm pretty sure that Maqview won't either. But the output of Maq didn't give me the raw alignment info to construct a file with all that info, so I use SOAP, and process that output.
