[thelist] Real Audio......

[sales at iibiz.com]

Hi Gang,

My server (not mine) has Real Audio set up on it for streaming audio.

I've ripped some song samples off a CD using Xing's AudioCatalyst, and it
appears the only option I have is to save it as a mp3 or wav file.

The instructions from my server say that it has to be an "ra" extension to
work.  I'm assuming this stands for Real Audio.

Soooooooooo........my question is, do I have to buy a Real Audio product to
encode it as "ra", or are there other tools that can do this, preferabably
free!?

First shot at this, so please bear with me,

Sandy
