OT: REAL Alternative

For those of you who refuse to use Real Media Player, like me, I found an alternative. It's the free Real Alternative player which installs without all the crap Real Media dumps into your computer. Seems to be working very well, too.

You can down load the codec from here. It's fast download and an easy install.

Sometimes it opens with an error, you just need to drag the link into the screen and then it plays..

Haven't had that happen, yet, but it's good to know. Thanks!

I use also use Real Alternative, it's nice not to have the junky Real player installed.

I also use Quicktime Alternative, which avoids installing the quicktime player with its 'upgrade' message.
