agree with everything except realplayer

btw, ie6 deserves the top spot

Well real player works awesome if linux version is used. Its as simple as notepad of windows ...click/play/close...no ads/delays/nothing and I say Win Me deserves the top spot....Donno why it was even created when it predecessor was destined to perform better. And yea Lion King ( i presume the movie ) was good .

The version of Real Player here is I think 6 or 7 Although its really light on today's PCs but the the fact that its has reporting home and no playlist features make me rather ignore it. The new version is way better and if it could have used a Windows native Interface like older versions did, i would have liked it more than I like it right now.

i agree with everything except realplayer. RealPlayer 10.5 GOLD is one of the best player i have seen so far. it can play almost all the formats that exist, even quicktime. i dont find anything bad about it. but the linux version is really bad. i couldnt install it at all. when i finally did, it couldnt even play an MP3.
