RealPlayer leaves beta, becomes fully-fledged Android app

[![RealPlayer leaves beta, becomes fullyfledged Android app][1] ][2]

RealNetworks has decided to roll out that old internet chestnut, [RealPlayer][3], to a fresh-faced generation of smartphones that are screaming out for one _more_ media player. This one reckons it can handle your music, video and photo content al in the same blueish hue and while the player has a basic flavor out for free, there's a $5 app for those that like the finer things in life. Extra features in the paid-for version include a graphic equalizer with save function, [Gracenote][4] database compatibility and manual metadata editing for those with more esoteric music tastes. Naturally, advertising is nixed in this version too. Now out from beta testing, hit the source for the download.
