Incog.
I hate the way it is getting increasingly difficult to find just the free player on the Real site. I hate the way you have to spend ages going through all its settings before you're sure it will only do what you want, when you want. But I also recognise that Real Player is like this as a result of pressure from the marketeers and the bean counters at Real who are trying to make money out of it. I don't let it cloud my judgement of the core product, which is a streaming media player whose codecs produce good-quality video.
