- Automatically convert and add your videos to iTunes so they can easily be transferred to your iPod or iPhone.
- Easily share your favorite videos to Facebook, Twitter and MySpace.
Real Player SP Beta for Mac weighs in at 27MB and requires Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later.

| I'm not a big fan of Real, but I might use it to capture a few Flash videos here and there. |

| Does anyone really use realplayer anymore i haven't seen to many sites left with realplayer content on them and most of them if they do have realplayer links they are dead or lead to spyware and malware. |

| Hear that? That's the sound of crickets... and the no one cares department. Real hasn't realized that the world has passed them by a long time ago. For me, this is one piece of software that will never touch my Mac... I know how badly it used to mess up my Windows machines. |

Yeah, but everything messes up Windows machines. I like this player and converter in many ways. I just don't like the company that produces it. |

| I don't care much for the Real Player (VLC FTW!), but Rhapsody is so underrated. I so wish they would come out with a native Rhapsody application for the Mac. Why stop at the iPhone? |

I don't think there is anything really special about the player. It even nails your CPU much harder than QTX. I just like how you can grab YouTube video and convert them over into iTunes for your iPhone, even though there are a plethora of programs for doing that. They also have a bunch of profiles for Android phones. |
