Some additions:

For TCPMP I would add the loads of supported formats (incl. video) to "Pros", and the somewhat complicated handling for audio (tiny buttons, or even only reachable by menu and assignment to application buttons) to "Cons".

GSPlayer has the same audio routines as MortPlayer. This means, GSPlayer has an equalizer and effects (though a bit hidden in the menu) and MortPlayer also supports GSPlayer plugins. Additionally to the MIDI plugin, there's a quite good MOD plugin around which is based on bassmod. A WMP plugin is worked on, but there seem to be some difficulties with the plugin interface...
Well, and of course the audio quality should be equal, though there seem to be minor differences caused by different CPU usage and different default buffer settings.

For MortPlayer, I'd also like to mention the "Changer Mode". AFAIK there's still no other player around that allows you use like the common MP3 player: Insert card, scan directory structure (in MP limited to "favorites" so you don't get e.g. sound effects of games, and it won't last forever to scan the entire card), and then select the directory with a finger friendly dialog or cycle between directories with prev./next favorite buttons. And when a directory is played, it switches to the next one.
OK, while this often makes it easier to use once you got the idea, it's quite uncommon and does a big deal to the "may be too complicated for some people"...
