Grrrr! That just completely stopped me from buying the plus version. The only way I can keep WMP in the dock right now is I had to enable the section for open programs, which then puts the icon in the dock. As long as I keep minimizing it, it will stay there... but if I actually "X" out of it, then it will disappear off the dock.

That's too bad. OD+ offers quite a bit more that surely will help to create an efficient computing experience. Although, if you're going to get rid of the taskbar while using OD I can see how this may be a problem.
WMP actually is a resource hog. The other option is another third party media player. e.g., Winamp, Xion, etc.
Then you'll still be able to see all those great stats while using OD+
