I'd stop releasing Real for *nix platforms, especially Linux.
What gives? Spend money for a platform (which won't come back), that platforms users call you Spyware, Lame etc.
Maybe I am too emotional but I don't get the problem, especially with Linux guys over realplayer, I have win32 Realone player (which I will get license just to make those mad) and when I switched OFF the Internet services (oh evil (!), god damn thing looks for an critical update etc) I didn't see it connecting to internet.
Stop Linux production Real, lets watch when a thing like Windows Media 10 ships and needs latest directx framework which isn't covered with Wine.
You can live with emulating windows media player, when a version needing directx 9, I will just laugh to you. Well, on windows I'll be able to download/run it.
Get a life, remember WHAT you bitch about. Any company else gave a fucking respect over the OS you run?
Well I guess the guy/gal at google thought exactly that, "who cares about cookies? If anyone cares, it must be a nerd slashdot user and he/she will back us since we run Linux here"
Thank you linux fanatics

Now I understand Google is untouchable because it runs on Linux whatever it does and I switched my default search engine to alltheweb on Opera browser.
Thank you very much and now I started to believe at that "whining" guy.

Oh Google can't be evil since it runs Linux.
Mark me troll but, grow up kids... A company running Linux/Opensource doesn't mean they are all angels... Yahoo runs FreeBSD for instance...
Another reply, which came to my mind... Don't watch them than?

If you can, make the video raw format, without compression. Than re-compress using mpeg, the best app you can find.
You will understand why its Realmedia than.

How come its spyware, mr genious? oh no need to compile a dummy exe, just god damn TURN OFF automatic services!
I hope MS pays you well.
Eh, he is trying to show up like cool guy saying he doesn't install realplayer... :)
Its simple... I have plans for 2 months to move to apple, if they use that x86 thing (not calling it names), I'll buy an AMD and stay.
It would be the worst wrong thing ever done on IT history. I want to move to Apple since I started to hate this Wintel thing, linux fight etc...
It will never work, I moved away from Linux when Loki is dead
You insert a CD and game installs on Windows... Thats what MS does and why its popular. DirectX is a MS invention/vision.
oh btw modding me down doesn't change my point.
Run all games via emulation (oh, yea wine isn't a emulator) or dual boot and wait for your platform to be respected... Isn't it too much people?
Reminds me a funny memory. An admin friend at newspaper he works for was scanning his own network.
:))
That evil tool (I don't remember its name) displayed 2 lines that I'll never forget in my life:
"warning, user mac's password is set to mac"
No comment
Since it even dared to mess with the Linux prophet,Google, now it deserves to die... good night..

while you are just a IE junkie, I wanted to inform you/others.
I don't "attack" on purpose, I am real sick of uninstalling "client for ms networks" whenever I install tcp/ip
