going from tcpmp (free) to coreplayer (costs) should be based on tcpmp + better, not worse. plugin support SHOULD be implemented for 1.0 release.

AC3 is important because many movies are encoded with AC3 audio. Since AC3 was supported in the free version, it is expected to be supported in the new version. for example, would winamp release a newer version that doesn't support ogg format when the older version could already play ogg? would you buy a new model lexus that didn't have power windows but instead had no windows? sure we didn't need AC3, just like we dont need power windows, or windows at all... would you buy a new computer that lacks usb ports? sure usb isn't needed to run the computer, but its nice to have, just like AC3. i dont know...

The skin isn't important, but sharpness would be nice. Even free gsplayer had skin options... and many other players out there got skin options.

Too bad we have to carry two versions of players to play media. I was hoping core player would replace tcpmp with enhancements. Can you imagine microsoft releasing windows vista that has aero and lacks functions like networking and so you have to dual boot windows xp and vista to play with both functions?

looking forward to the new coreplayer.
