That really depends on the project, the amount of data and what you want to do with it. Personally I would not even consider using a list view to attach to my database and display inventory data. I do use them for certian items mostly for user selection and of course use them if I need to display icons or thumbnails.
In general if you are dealing with rows of data that need conventional functions (add/Edit/Update/Delete) this is pretty much what the datagrids are for where as list view is for displaying either a simple list or a list with a few sub items and best for icons or thumbnails.
