According to News.com, AOL is expected to drop its long-established tradition of using solely RealNetworks' streaming technology in its mainstream products.
According to the rumours, AOL will switch from Real's RealAudio to MPEG-4-based AAC in its narrow-band Radio@AOL service (the broadband version uses MP3 format). AOL has licensed the technology from Dolby Laboratories.
