I personally despise the Real Audio format and will not download the player if that's the only way to get audio from a web site.
I usually send a note to the web site people (using Real Audio) to tell them that Real Audio is one of the least popular formats and of the lowest quality. If they want to continue to use it, they've lost me as a web site visitor.
I think it will be gone all together in less than a year, since they can't seem to get the message.
And they expect you to pay for a deluxe version! A deluxe version of horse shit is still horse shit!
Sorry... I guess you've figured out that I have an opinion about this! LOL
