I read the post and I still don't like it. I had two Real media clips I wanted to watch so I installed it. Custom install, making it the default player for Real media and nothing else. I'm not a computer guru or programmer, so I don't know all the details of how software interacts with each other, but I am an above average user. When the other media players didn't play movies after that I can't help but be annoyed.
Now I can understand Real being at a competitive disadvantage to Windows Media Player, Quicktime Player, and Winamp, since they all have companies with other products paying for their development, and Real has to rely on subscriptions and ads for revenue. I can understand a Real employee defending their product. I have spent plenty of time in the motors forum defending General Motors, since I used to work in their dealerships. However people are going to have their feelings about a product, and I just don't and wont like Real Player, or Real One, or anything else that Real comes out with.
