“Want RealPlayer for Linux/PPC?

LinuxPPC Inc. and Terra Soft Solutions, Inc. (makers of Yellow
Dog Linux) are encouraging Linux/PPC users everywhere to visit
http://www.linuxppc.org/real.shtml.
Users are asked to email the two listed addresses and voice their
desire for a Linux/PPC port of RealPlayer. An x86 Linux version of
the streaming media player has been available for some time, but
users’ requests for a Linux/PPC port have so far gone
unanswered.

Please visit the page, which lists the real.com address to email
as well as a polite form letter to send.”
