Real Useless


Besides the potential legal threat from Apple, Real may have a bigger problem with Harmony, its DRM transcoding software: the software may not work as advertised. Julio Ojeda-Zapata unsucessfully attempted to use Harmony

It detected both of my loaner iPods (a mini and the just-released full-size model with a mini-like scroll wheel) just fine, but a song purchased on the RealPlayer Music Store wouldn’t sync over to either player. I kept getting a “(clip) not supported by device” error message.
