stay deep affliction or deep demo until you hit 70, you could spend 10 points in destro-tree for imp SB and the SB casttime-reduce.

I'd lean towards the UA/Shadowburn more, as it gets you some more firepower in the right direction.

For grinding and farming (and raiding) you're lookin at runnin around with your Imp out, where Demo's stat boosts help a lot, but Fel Domination, Improved Healthstone, and Improved Imp are only going to be minor boosts here. Demonic Aegis is actually one of the better things you picked up there for either a Fear rotation or a Drain Tank rotation, but even that isn't a huge boost to anything. The good thing here is I assume you're already very comfortable with your pets and with the Fel Domination ability, so I don't doubt you could get some nice PVP off with this build.

On the Destro side I'm digging mostly the Shadowburn and Bane, as well as Destructive reach allowing you to pull some nastier targets in with either a SBolt (has Projectile flight time so it's essentially free unengaged Dmg) or an Immolate (which nobody uses primarily because of the lower reach.) I would actually stick with the Shadowbolt. Of course Shadowburn will help you tremendously in PVP, although I don't really see it helping regular PVE that much since with that much Affliction you can handle an ungodly amount of monsters without a sweat. For Raiding and 5Mans you'd obviously be sticking to the DoT rotation + SB spam which this build would definatly serve better than the Demo one.

You can play a ridiculously good level 70 with 41/0/0, so honestly it's a question of would you rather be able to summon a Demon out quicker, or have a flash damage spell that could come to save your butt in some PVP. Think about how you'd rather handle a really nasty situation and base your choice off that.

This might not apply to you, but shadowburn saved my *** many times in 25 man raids doing hydross-, tidewalker murloc- ,and lurker adds, since it can can just before they die the mt-assists will lose aggro on the near dead mobs removing them out of aoe reach from other caster and they go straight for you - a shadowburn comes in really handy in such a situation and as i said it happens alot that one adds comes for you.

I'd go for the best of both worlds myself. One thing I'd like to mention about your Affliction tree though is that Shadow Embrace will no longer trigger Soul Siphon. So you may want to drop that.

If you want the Imp over the HS, I'd take this:

For levelling this will be great, I'd pick up all the Affliction stuff, and then Destro first, unless your going to be doing some PvP, then you might want Demonic Embrace first. Choice is up to you.

If you planning on using this for Kara later, I'd drop the Demo entirely and pick up either Imp CoA or Malediction, depening on group make-up of course.
