Hate to admit it.

I hate to admit it but I do use RealPlayer for Rhapsody Radio. (free online radio service from Comcast) I had bad experiences with Real in the past but the latest version of RealPlayer seems a little better behaved than previous versions. It still tries to take over all media when installed and you have to use some extra care during the custom install to unhook it from everything except .ram & .rm files. But after that it has been running OK. Starts up reasonably fast, doesn't consume that many resources and perhaps most importantly, it shuts down when I tell it to and doesn't leave a bunch of orphan processes running in the background. Now I wouldn't pay to use it, but as a free service it seems to work well for manageing the 25 or so internet radio stations I listen to.
