Pros
Pro Stable with new software
The days of instability of Fedora are quite in the past. Since version 20 the distro has seen continually improving stability and easy update path. Despite having new software and often beta versions, it still offers a lot of stability.
Pro Frees developers from some backward compatibility restraints
Fedora has a relatively short life cycle: version X is supported only until 1 month after version X+2 and with approximately 6 months between versions this means that a version of Fedora is supported for approximately 13 months. This promotes leading-edge software because it frees developers from some backward compatibility restraints.
Pro Focuses on innovation
By using bleeding edge software, Fedora allows for innovation to take place by testing out things other distros are not willing to try due to instability.
Pro Upstream contribution
Provides a lot of software fixes are provided upstream keeping distro based patches to a minimum
Cons
Con Frequent breakage
Fedora is a testbed distribution. As such, it frequently has beta software that isn't quite production ready
Con Nonfree software requires jumping through hoops
For a Windows user who wants an easy Linux distribution to get acquainted with, having to go through all the work to listen to an MP3 file will probably be demoralizing.
