Yep. Now that Real/AOL/Time-Warner has safely absorbed even the venerable WinAmp (I find it difficult to understand how AOL's been allowed to purchase their competition since 1996), it's taking off the disguise and revealing itself as "RealOne". Unfortunately the player is more than a player, and probably has more trick cookie transmissions in it than anyone's ever darkly dreamed. And there's no other option now, if you want to play Real content. What a surprise. The only thing keeping me from converting everything online to Windows Media is its limited support on Macs - but I doubt that Mac users would support such a behemoth as Real/AOL/Time-Warner. Or would they? What's the Mac contingent say? > EXACTLY! I HATE REALPLAYER! Does it really give you anything that mp3s > or quicktime doesn't already?
