I am losing my taste for software like this -- the stuff that's pretty much
commercial stuff, "free" for the basic version, and tied to a web site.

Why? Have you used the RealONE software, from our friends at
Real.com? It's little more than a virus that plays RA files in the way
that it puts extra programs on your machine that contact the 'net on a
regular basis for who knows what. What else does it do? I don't know,
it's gone from my machines, so I don't care. (See "Rndal" on
http://www.answersthatwork.com/Tasklist_pages/tasklist_r.htm for more about
this.)

If you need to play RA, check out http://www.oldversion.com for the old
RealPlayer.

OBTron: I listened to the first track of Kitaro's "Ancient" with only half
an ear, but did I hear 'tron buried in there?
