Sorry, this doesn't follow. Just because you use linux doesn't mean they couldn't put a serial number in there. They may have not bothered with this functionality. I would suggest that if you are interested, you contact Real Networks and express that interest. They exist for one reason: to make money. If the cost of modification of the linux client will pay off with enough subscribers they will probably follow that money. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net "When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million missle at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.
