MP3 Plug-In
The plug-in was linked on the page when v1.17 was released, but the link is not there with this new version, and it isn't in the SourceForge folder either:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/freac%20Portable%20MP...
(Only the v1.17 version)
Old Text, Included
That text in the description was included accidentally. The update is already in the announcement paragraph where it says that the MP3 plugin is an optional component, meaning it's optional as you install.
Understood
Thanks for the clarification John.
Regards.
