With Apple having a strong presence with iPod and iTunes, and Microsoft pushing its own DRM protected Windows Media technology to content providers, it seems that Real is quite desperate to find allies.

I can't stand RealPlayer and I would rather see them stay away from stuff I use. RealPlayer just reminds me of the crappy AOL experiences I used o endure.
i agree denzilla, and also doesnt all of real networks products install a bunch of spyware too?
please. god. no.
Dammit another step towards music streaming, those greedy bastards just want to find a way to charge you everytime you want to listen to ur favorite song. HA, you can't stop me from owning my songs, down with fake network, and all media streaming appz!!!
If a person is willing to pay for iTunes DRM infected files and iPod hardware I don't see why it would be a bad thing for Rhapsody's files to play on iPods or iTunes files to play on Real player. Personally I will never spend a dime on either format EVER so maybe that's why I just don't care.
