The Orban/Coding WMP plug-in is a much easier install than Winamp, which 
requires the user to make a bunch of choices to avoid having Winamp hijack 
file associations. In contrast, there is *nothing* for the user to 
configure with the plug-in. As the text on the associated web pages says:

"The installation of this component is extremely light and simple, with no 
authentication, registration, monitoring, tracking, commercials, other push 
content, spyware, or hijacking of existing players."

You launch the installer, click the "accept" button for the Terms and 
Conditions (unfortunately a necessary part of the procedure because of the 
intellectual property involved in making the plug work), and it's hands off 
after that. As soon as the installer finishes running, you can start 
playing your first aacPlus stream through WMP.
