RealNetworks products suck...have you actually tried using it on an NT box? The sound quality is totally crappy, and NT's much vaunted "superior multitasking" commonly interrupts the streams. All this about whether it is a "second or first tier" company is a bunch of hooey...if their products don't work well, and other competitors do. Add in a PE of thousands and you have a recipe for BIG trouble, especially in a market characterized by rising rates. Enjoy the ride! Who's going to bother with streamed audio when they can get as many MP3s off the net as they want?
