A tidy media solution?
If you were to use the words “software”, “audio player” and “bloated” in the same sentence amidst a crowd of audio-aficionados, nine of out then of them would assume that you’re referring to RealPlayer. Real Media hasn’t had the best of press over the years and most of this is its own doing.
A persistence in polluting products with annoying third-party add-ons, continual reminders of how to spend more money in associated online stores and the symbiotic way at which it attaches itself to all facets of your operating system stands in stark contrast to the streamlined nature of some rivals, and has undoubtedly cost Real Media a good deal of business.
With the release of RealPlayer SP it attempts to win back some customers by offering genuinely useful features that will appeal to the modern media generation. The free version of the software headlines with the ability to download and convert non copy-protected video from sites such as YouTube and quickly convert them to a range of formats for viewing on handhelds, games consoles and other devices.
A full subscription adds H.264 support, more detailed control over video conversion and the ability to burn DVDs. Other additions here include crossfade mixing effects, CD burning up to 320kbps and advanced audio controls for converting from vinyl and tape, though in truth it’s the video downloading that should hold the biggest appeal.
The new features actually work pretty well and provided the particular content you want to convert is not copy-protected, a “Download this video” link will appear above a window either through RealPlayer’s built-in web browser or a standalone application. Files can be converted right away or by selecting content from the library, at which point a choice of formats (e.g., Apple iPod, Xbox 360, BlackBerry) are available with pre-built profiles, along with the option to customise the conversion with your own settings. A nice touch here is the ability to convert for multiple devices at the same time, though you are fairly limited in selectable formats and sadly Real enforces its RealVideo standard or Windows Media (rather than AVI, DivX or a more generic format) as the only options for playback on a PC.
Conversion is quick and easy and we have no complaints about the structure taken to offering this service, but with free resources available online to do much the same, it may not hold enough appeal in itself.
Those willing to upgrade to the full version will benefit from H.264 conversion, DVD burning and the other features listed above, and again we were pleased at how well this integrates and at the tidy way in which the package offers what are a wide range of features in an approachable fashion. The software generally seems more streamlined and less hassle than in previous years, which will be good news to anyone who is already a fan of Real Media.
Unfortunately this is also where we think the package falls down. The insistence in forcing a proprietary format and the omission of many convenient, commonly used alternatives could be Real’s undoing here, and for this reason it is unlikely to offer enough to reel in new users or those who have turned their nose up at the company in the past.
Verdict:
RealPlayer SP is very nice to use and integrates the various components available beautifully, but while these do work very well, savvy users will argue that free alternatives that don’t tie them to RealMedia formats are available elsewhere.
However, even though the free version does omit H.264, novices may appreciate the ability to download and convert video for use on handhelds and loyal followers will undoubtedly be pleased with the benefits available on this new version.

Normally, Apple removes apps from the App Store at a rate we can digest and analyze, but it looks like it’s now adopting a different tactic, maybe to frustrate criticism with sheer volume. This time around, it has given the boot to a stunning 900 apps in one fell swoop. The apps aggregated various web content, and charged $4.99 for the service, despite not being copyright holders of any of it.
The app’s developer, a company called Perfect Acumen owned by one Khalid Shalik, employed 26 Indian and Pakistani programmers who churned out 943 apps last year alone. The purpose of all of the apps was to grab content tailored to a specific target audience and just display it on the iPhone. Even this simple task it didn’t handle very well, according to user reviews, which mainly criticized the app, and worse still, Perfect Acumen held no copyrights for any of the content they republished, including photos of hot celebrities, which tend to catch the attention of fair-use publication enforcers.
According to The iPhone Blog, Apple says it revoked Perfect Acumen’s developer account and removed the apps when Shalik or any company representative failed to respond to any of the 100+ complaints Apple received as a result of the applications. Other developers also criticized Acumen’s shady marketing tactics. All in all, it seems like for once, Apple’s review process actually got something right, albeit belatedly.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t end there. Perhaps as a direct result of the kinds of complaints received against Perfect Acumen, Apple seems to be clamping down on all content source provider apps, according to Erica Sadun at TUAW. First to go are e-book applications, which, according to TUAW’s sources, are now being met with a blanket rejection policy because of third-party rights infringement. Like its stance on charitable applications, it just doesn’t want the onus of having to vet each app for the accuracy of its claims.
The policy appears to be a blanket one, though, and covers even apps where the developer is the owner of the content, or has the right to reproduce it and can prove it. It’s bound to be a major door-closing for app store developers, and one that will only continue to sour developer sentiment towards Apple and the way it does business. Finally, the icing on the cake, all e-book readers apparently also now run afoul of Apple’s policies (which might explain the lack of a Stanza update in recent memory).
It’s one thing to make sure you’re covered when it comes to legitimate accusations of enabling copyright infringement, but it’s another altogether to wage war on an entire subcategory (literally, since “Books” is one of the App Store’s categories of apps) of software. I suspect this has something to do with the rumored launch of a tablet-type device in the fall, which is said in some circles to have e-reader capabilities.
If so, this preemptive thinning of competition borders on the sinister, and I’m seriously considering a permanent switch to RIM just to protest these shady business practices. That said, there’s still plenty of opportunity to prove me wrong Apple. Let’s hope you do.

With invites going out every day and Google and Apple being in the news many times over because of the rejection of its native Google Voice app for the iPhone, many are giving this service a close look. If you’re a Mac or iPhone user, here are some tips that’ll help you get the most out of this service.
Unlocked Phone? Free calls!
Though officially iPhone users in the U.S. should be on the AT&T network, if you’re using another carrier, you may be able to use your Google Voice number to get around your monthly allotment of minutes. Some carriers, like T-Mobile, offer the ability to provide a list of “frequently” used numbers that do not impact the minutes allowed on a monthly plan. Since Google is footing the bill for connecting calls between a Google Voice number and any other number inside the U.S., simply adding your Google number to your “favorite list” results in free calls. It’s too bad AT&T doesn’t support this feature.
No GV Mobile? No problem!
The internets were in a tizzy last week over the removal of GV Mobile from Apple’s App Store, leaving iPhone users with Google’s mobile website to place calls. If you are one of few who have jailbroken your phone, you can find GV Mobile through Cydia. For more information, check out Sean Kovacs website.
If jailbreaking isn’t your bag, then no problem! The traditional way that Google Voice works is that you simply call your Google Voice number and then press “2.” From here, you can dial the outgoing call as normal. For those who frequently are calling contacts with their Google Voice number, here’s a quick way to simplify the process.
In your iPhone’s address book, you can add another number for a contact and format it so that your iPhone does all the dirty work of calling Google and connecting the call for you.
The process is simple. Create a new contact entry for your desired contact and for their number, insert your own Google number. Then press the “+*#” key and then the “pause” button to insert a pause. Now type a “2” followed by another “pause” and finally the desired phone number for the contact. Now you’ve told your iPhone to dial Google, initiate a new call and contact the number you’ve selected. Here’s how it should look:
Though dialing will take slightly longer, it’s all automated and the other person will see your Google number when their phone rings! Depending on your settings, you may also need to input your PIN number with appropriate pauses. Also, make sure your Google Voice account is setup to allow direct access to voicemail when calling from your phone. These options are all in your Google Voice settings.
Google Voice On Your Mac
If your browser of choice is Firefox, developer Chad Smith has developed a plugin that quickly allows users to click any phone number on the web and dial and connect via their Google Voice number. This free plugin is available here.
Are you a Google Voice user? Have you discovered other neat tips and tricks? Do you love it? Do you hate it? Sound off and share your thoughts!
