Hello,

You can also download a free version of Realplayer from the ACB radio site:

www.acbradio.org

And look for the relevant link.

The sound from Realplayer lacks the brightness and depth of the sound from Winamp or Windows Mediaplayer IMHO.

Alex, the unpaid for version I refered to was probably downloaded from the
following BBC source:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/audiohelp_install.shtml

On the web generally I found two other sources at:
http://uk.real.com/home/
http://www.download-it-free.com/real%5Fplayer/
The RealAudio UK site seems to make every effort to make you download the
premium version.  The BBC site does start a download, although when you
install it I think you have to go through all the rigmerole of tellling them
about yourself.

To be honest its a long time since I've done this so I cannot quite recall
the process I went through then.  You end up by not paying anything,
eventually, but its a hassel.  Real Alternative, which is on Tom Laurimer's
Whitestick site., is freely downloadable from there.

HTH.
