Default iPod plugin for WMP!

Just saw this today - http://www.mgtek.com/dopisp/

Holy crap, can it be true? Has anyone used it before? I don't like the performance of iTunes on Windows and MediaMonkey is okay but really sluggish with my library of 4800 songs. WMP is the only program that handles my music well and efficiently. I'm still waiting for Songbird to get to at least v1.0 so would it be worth it to buy this plugin?

The iPod touch and iPhone with the 2.0 or 2.0.1 firmware do not work with anything except iTunes at the moment. And MediaMonkey is still slower than WMP 11 on my computer. I only used it to add album art to my mp3 collection then uninstalled it. It also consumes way too much memory which causes major instability.

Still haven't tried it? Give some feed back if you have.

I hate iTunes with a passion and I will not add another music player just for the damn iPod owners in my family.
