For those who might want to play Real files without the hassle of the Real Crapware then a good alternative is Jet Audio player available at »www.jetaudio.com/.
There is a free version that I have on my box that works quite well. I use it mainly only for Real files while using Windows Media player as my default player for everything else.
I think its great that Real has these nice little contractis with MLB and American Idol and even some News programs. However, after my experience using Real Player back in the day ............. I have absolutely no desire to install their software on my PC.
The only players I use are WMP9 and QuickTime. Any site that I visit requiring Real and only Real just simply gets passed over.
