Well, one thing RealNetworks is NOT doing right is making a product that works. Have any of you ever tried it? Yes, it 'kinda' works, but the video is terrible, and the audio is, at best, marginal. Content is excellent though.

It's a pretty cool product, but without higher speed connection, no matter how 'swoft' their product looks, it ain't gonna work well. Given the way the Internet works (has delays in sending data...sometimes long delays, and the majority of users can only connect at 28.8 max) it will be a while (years.....) before this technology *really* works as it should.

This company being valued at 1B is really an April fools joke....even valued at 300M is ridiculous... It's amazing how perception differs from reality and how it effects stocks.
