If you feel so inclined, a small donation to help offset my costs (server, bandwidth, equipment, etc.) would be much appreciated. Either make a purchase through one of our affiliates, bid on our eBay auctions, buy me something on my wish list, or use the handy donation button below.

Cool Find: ProPlayer Video Player for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad (Updated)

Update 12/26/2012: Due to Dolby’s new aggressive policy of going after app developers who use their AC3 and TrueHD audio codecs, ProPlayer has been removed from the App Store and is no longer available for sale.
