Because they are complaining about features that don't exist anymore (and in some cases haven't existed in 4 years), and because they praise other media players that are more agressive about filetype hijacking/resource utilization/icon litering/....
Look, I know that I'm not going to win these people over- even in the best of worlds everyone has their own preferencecs. I did, however, hope that I could dispell many of the myths that I see repeated over and over. My rant about the ignorant people was out of sheer frustration that nobody is interested in the truth.

goof7ball, the issue for many of us doesnt lie in Real's current performance. The issue is that Real (like you admit), used to suck, HARD. Bloatware, a bitch to even download, screwed up your system, and with almost no benefits. Things may be fixed now, but for me--and I suspect many other TFPers--that is irrelevant. They lost my trust, and there are plenty of alternatives out there. I dont want to completely kill on Real, but I know that I wont be voluntarily using their player for anything.
