I can't get Real Player to work. When I click on it nothing happens. I normally use Windows Media Player but I've just downloaded some music samples from my mates' bands site and they're mp3 and seem to be Real Player files. Should I change a default somehere?
Thanks

TBH winamp is a great program for music I dont find it all that good for video, I have found it rather slow in some vidoe formats. I use zoomplayer or vlc player for video. Real alternative is great for realplayer (rm) files.0
