Hi listers, I currently have Winamp selected as my default player and am able to use it to play at least some of the file types usually associated with RealPlayer, primarily RM and RAM files. However, I have not been able to play files associated with certain streams which I think have an .ave extension. I'm wondering if Real 10 would allow me the ability to play some files which Real 8 does not support, and can't remember whether it is free or by subscription. It's not so much that I want to use RealPlayer--I'd prefer to keep Winamp as my default and to use it as much as possible but would consider adding Real 10 if there is any advantage to it. Is this a free player or only available by subscription and where can I get it, and how does it compare to Real Alternative, or would I be better off looking for that? For a long time I thought the quality of Winamp streams was definitely superior, has RealPlayer improved much?
And speaking of quality, I've just upgraded to Winamp 5.03 and thought I saw something about Windows Media support though haven't been through the documentation. Does this version support playing .wma files? Sorry for all the questions, any thoughts and advice much appreciated.
