A LITTLE MORE ON REAL: Furdlog provides an excellent what happened next on Real's faux-consumer campaign to try and force Apple to let them have access to iPod technology. For a start, their call to arms managed to stir up a load of pro-Apple postings on the supposedly independent freedomofchoicemusic site, which meant the ability to comment was yanked - freedom of choice, it seems, is one thing; freedom of speech quite another.

Meanwhile, we're still wondering about Real's desire to ensure that music be totally free: is this the same Real who sued Streambox when Streambox attempted to offer a product that would allow people to choose how they wanted to listen to streaming media?
