no it's not the Radical Assasians8 trail verdict or something like that ------- i have been reluctant to download Real Audio 8 -- but i can't listen to Mudcat radio without it ---- i know many of you have it at this point --- so what's the verdict -- what do and don't you like about it?

It seems OK to me thosp........just don't download the extra shinola....just the free basic 8 is fine. I know others have complained about some things stemming from the upgrade ($)versions.

I agree with Spaw about not getting anything but the free RealAudio player. (I had problems with RealJukebox.)

I didn't notice anything negative about the new version, and the video seems smoother now. Other than that, there isn't much difference.

Ditto. I've had no problem with Real Audio 8 or Real Jukebox.
