Real Audio is a streaming format (ie it plays as it is downloading) that requires the FREE Real Player Basic which can be downloaded from Real Networks at http://www.real.com/. Be sure to download the Real Player Basic, not the Real Player Plus, unless you want to pay for your listening experience. Real Networks supplies players for both Mac and PC.

The MP3 files provided need to be dowloaded before they will play back. There are many MP3 players available online. Winamp is a popular free MP3 player for PCs and iTunes is a popular free player for Macs. You can download Winamp at http://www.winamp.com/ or iTunes at http://www.apple.com/itunes/.

The Real Player will also play MP3 files, but generally the installers for a dedicated MP3 player are much smaller than the installer for the Real Player, making them faster to download.

The size of each Real Audio and MP3 file is provided next to the link to that file. You do not need either player to view any other content on this website - it is entirely up to you whether or not you would like the full aural experience. Enjoy!
