    This is (2) mediocre players; doing mediocre things.

    - Wish RealPlayer would just fall into obscurity

    Great domain name, dumb site. Can’t imagine this site gaining any traction. Sell the domain name while the you can!!!

    Sounds great for them - but I am an affiliate - how does that make money for me is my greatest concern?

    Sites that are stupid to some are big money for others. This is big news for the casual games industry.
