Like most things you get what you pay for, and many people avoid DD-X because compared to other developers it seems expensive. However, there are recipes for 1:9 ratio's online, which do work well, and if you develop and re-use it straight away on the same day it's fine, just chuck it within 24 hrs. But, that's not why you should try it, you should try it because it's pretty much the best there is, it works well with every film I've used it on, and it's speed enhancing so you can shoot box speed or push with it to your heart's content. It won't give you the sharpness of rodinal, but it will give you excellent highlights and shadows and decent sharpness. It's designed for giving you the best negatives for printing,

This is without doubt the most versatile developer out there, it literally works with any film, I've pushed HP5 to ISO1600 and got great results, and I've shot Rollei Ortho 25 at box speed and had beautiful results too. It isn't cheap but the best costs, and you can find recipes for 1:9 which work well, if you don't mind the increased development times, so it can be used economically. I generally just use it at 1:4 because it's so consistent and I know what I'm getting. Ilford state that it will give you great negatives for printing, with an excellent range of tones, and I can definitely confirm that this is true, its reputation is well deserved.

Very easy to use - one shot developer - no complicated procedures - just follow the simple instructions on Ilford’s website.I started developing my own B&W with this.Has very fine grain and just great all round - this is best with the Delta range - out a roll through a camera with a high quality lens - expose for the shadows (or let the matrix meter in a Minolta Dynax 7, Nikon F100/F5/F6 do the metering) follow the instructions and you can then get beautiful correctly exposed negatives which you can print traditionally or scan.

Used to develop HP5 at box speed with Ilford suggested time of 9 mins, agitation for 10 seconds at the start of each minute and then fixed with Ilford Rapid Developer. Results are excellent and I will be sticking with this as my developer for the foreseeable future.

This is a fine developer even if a bit pricey. Unless used quickly it should be decanted into smaller bottles to prevent oxidation.
