Re: RealOne is Improving said by 91439306:
Real streams never gave me any trouble. They play, no matter what site I find them on and quality for file size is the best I've seen, better than DiVX, MPEG, QR, WM9, etc.
People just love to have a scapegoat to bash. Real has gotten a little over the top recently with adware, but I think they now realize where they went wrong. They realize that public perception is negative and market share decreasing and it appears they are working to change that.
Well, I a one to say it is a little to late for Real to change now...the word is out and changing now after what...9 version is a bit slow to respond to consumers needs/demands. I for one use QT, Divx, WMP and Winamp. No Real player here. I had Real before and it hogged resource like a pig in a trough.

New Milford, CT | On two of my machines running Win 2K, I use older versions of RealPlayer with the adware hacked out, based on instructions I received two years ago. Those players never bother me. But I don't see the need to have CD extraction and a whole media center in a player. I expressed that to Real, so hopefully they are going to respond with a scaled-down player without all the bloatware. Real has to understand that we users mostly already have CD rippers and other tools and we don't need to duplicate them when all we want is to hear a media clip on some web site.
Write to Real's staff. They DO listen.

| I still like to use old versions of programs. I am still using WinAmp 2.68 the b4 AOL took over version...and it run so much better than the version now. I have an old Opera version and a few other programs. Maybe if they would not have put spyware or malware in the player ppl would be more receptive.
