Didn't they use to be a hi-tech company or something?

Hair Amerika is the worst excuse for talk radio I have ever heard.

I've always detested RealPlayer and refused to install it because of its built-in spyware.

Now I have a reason to detest it even more.

"Air America has created the hottest new brand on radio, offering some of the most dynamic damned personalities and programming found anywhere on the radio dial," Glaser said in a statement.

Should have known. RealPlayer is one of the most obnoxious programs ever. Registration screens, massively bloated, and comes pretty close to adware, IHMO. I'd almost prefer Windows Media Player to it.

"I have re-signed with Air America in order to spend less time with my family."

A terrible deal for a terrible company with a terrible product.

RealNetwork and Herr Amerika sound made for each other.

Senator Maria Cantwell in WA State was a Real Networks executive. She used millions of her own $$$ from Real for her campaign to unseat Senator Slade Gorton. She denied until after the election that she was using so much of her own money. It was probably not legal. She barely succeeded in winning the seat. There are those of us who think she got it through shall we say "creative" means, but Slade Gorton pulled a Nixon and conceded rather than drag the state through what Democrat Christine Gregoire is now doing for the Governorship.

Figures. Only a bloated deluded liberal could design and market an overtly annoying product like Real Player.

Just uninstalled RealPlayer and related software. Fortunately now the streaming sites that I frequent give me a choice of players. I don't know any now that only use RealPlayer.
