These are both definitely worth getting. I wouldn't allow RealPlayer on my system for the reason's others have listed. The RealPlayer alternative works just fine without all the associated junk that comes with RealPlayer itself. I only had a few minor problems with Quicktime, but replaced it too after finding this alternative. Haven't had a problem with either one. |

Real Player sucked before, it sucks now, and It will continue to suck into the future. RealPlayer is the Gator
of the music player world. It wouldn't infest my computer at all with this turd except I have to have it to play it's extensions.
I also only have it to play my .rm's, which I am replacing with AVI files. I hate the program, it is the worst media player out there. Give me WMP over that any day.

I wouldn't install any Real product on my machines, not even if it was the only mp3 player on earth.
They have to be the king of bloatware. They're even worse than AOL. It is indeed the music equivalent of Gator.
I refuse to listen (or watch) anything that requires Real.

most of the evil Spyware things realplayer does can be blocked by anyone of the firewalls out there. But it still is a software dung bomb.

It's still meets my definition of a virus, in that it takes over everything on the machine. Real Player is right up there with AOL. Neither is allowed on any machine in this household.;) |
