Today I saw that OldVersion.com also bundles an illegal codec pack called RealPlayer Alternative. This stuff is 100% illegal. It uses the RealMedia codecs which are copyright-violated. I must say that this program is like the so called "cracks".
Please, get RID of this. It's a total pain.

It's a total pain.
Real-netwerx corporate policies are the pain. Real player format used to be quite useful (arguably) until it gained momentum and then the company found it handy to stuff the program with whatever and make it bloat-ware all with the aim of making bundles of money. I'm not familiar with the subject, but people should have a choice as a given (and I don't mean use-it-or-not). TTYL

I remember reading that real player was the best and no extras with it,i even heard the person that started real player on the TV. The BBC recomended it as their player of choise they might still do. But from the start i hated it! Haveing downloaded it i had to upgrade re register every time i wanted to use it .A REAL hassel

I used win amp and quintesentalplayer. but play all my music while at my laptop with "billy"from a great groupe of people www.sheepfriends.com i think i first started useing it in 1999/2000??
