Actually, I dunno how many people on PC's may not be able to listen to
MP3's, but I can say that probably in general, more people will be able to
listen to an MP3 than a RealAudio, since Amiga users can decode MP3 and
listen to it, but not RealAudio. I am not sure if there is a sufficient
amount of Amiga owners to justify this statement, but you'd be surprised how
many there are under your noses ;)
