Um... just in case I missed anyone else posting this (don't flame me if you knew this already):

TCPMP = The Core Pocket Media Player.

Think of TCPMP as a beta "prequel" to CorePlayer. TCPMP evolved through a number of betas and once refined was given a shiny new GUI and released for sale as CorePlayer.

"While TCPMP (The Core Pocket Media Player) is a terrific application, it never really had the slick, contemporary user interface (GUI) that most Palm apps have these days, and most of the features of the application are a bit too technical for the average Joe or Jane. It's still available if you want it but if you yearn for a little less geekiness, more features, and a prettier interface, you might want to take a serious look at its new commercial reincarnation: CorePlayer.

CorePlayer ("CP") improves on TCPMP by adding a shiny new GUI, which is customizable through various skin plug-ins, and better control buttons. It still has the VCR-style controls that its predecessor had, but CP’s buttons are repositioned and enlarged a tad to make them more fingerable."

Note: I have TCPMP myself... never tried CorePlayer personally.
