Is this real?

No, sorry, it's a jab about how no one paid for WinRAR either.

WinRAR did make piles of money by focusing on the commercial market. They really didn't care if home users went past the free trial period, but they did care if you were a business.

I don't know what WinAmp does, or ever did.

Real player is more of an alternative to winamp, I was surprised to see real.com. So no...
