SEATTLE, June 24 /PRNewswire/ --

- Enjoy Web Video Anywhere and Easily Share It on Twitter and Facebook

Digital entertainment services company RealNetworks(R) (Nasdaq: RNWK)
unveiled RealPlayer(R) Plus SP, the first application that enables people to
easily take Internet video with them on their favorite device and share it,
socially, with others. Available in Beta version beginning today at
www.realplayer.com, RealPlayer Plus SP is the first and only software product
that eliminates the complexity of downloading, converting and transferring
video files, so consumers can simply enjoy their video anywhere, on any
device.

"RealPlayer Plus SP makes it easy for anyone to get online video onto
their mobile phones and other favorite portable devices," said Rob Glaser,
CEO of RealNetworks. "Since 1995, the RealPlayer has been at the center of
people's online audio and video experience. RealPlayer Plus SP now un-tethers
that video experience so people can enjoy video on the go."

"Consumers have embraced mobile devices as being more than capable of
providing a rich, media-intensive experience. Understanding video formats and
management, however, is still far too difficult for most consumers," said
Michael Gartenberg, vice president of Strategy and Analysis at Interpret llc,
a market research firm based in LA and NY. "RealPlayer Plus SP helps solve
that problem with abundant support for multiple formats and devices, allowing
consumers to move content where they choose with only two clicks - making
this one of the most effective consumer tools for allowing content to flow
with them from screen to screen."

For anyone that wants to enjoy their favorite videos while mobile --
whether it is taking a library of user-generated-content (UGC) video clips to
a party or showing-off recently captured family video -- RealPlayer Plus SP
takes the guesswork out of the process. Once a video is downloaded, simply
select the make of your mobile phone, portable media player, or games system
from the menu - and RealPlayer Plus SP automatically does the rest. The same
videos can be shared with friends through Twitter, Facebook, or email with
one extra click. RealPlayer Plus SP also provides customers with new
customization options, including the ability to add device profiles, modify
the format and size of a video, and create audio-only files, helping to
ensure the best mobile video experience for their specific device. RealPlayer
Plus SP works with the device's existing media player so no additional
download is required to the device.

RealPlayer continues to be one of the most popular digital media
applications, with more than 350 million installations worldwide in the last
twelve months. In addition to playing all major media formats, either from
within the RealPlayer application or as embedded within popular Web browsers
like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, RealPlayer was the
first major media player to enable one-click downloading of Web video.

People around the world enjoy digital entertainment like music and video
from a wide variety of sources using RealPlayer.
