Simply put emplode only runs under Windows. Jemplode is written in Java and has been shown to run under various flavors of UNIX, the MacOS and I don't know where else.

To some this is very welcome. Personally I haven't booted Win anything in over a year and a half.

The only need to ask "is it good enough" is, that it hasen't had as many man years of effort put into it as emplode.
