I too dont like RealPlayer but can live with some of it's older
incarnations. But for all you windows users out there there's a program
called RealAlternative which lets you play RAM/RM files without
RealPlayer.

There are also a few other programs that claim to do that but they all
require RealPlayer to be installed and are essentially just an
alternative front-end. RealAlternative isn't the same and I believe
doesnt need any RealNetworks product installed to work...

I dont use windows though, so cant verify this
