CNET Editors' review
We were feeling pretty good about Easy RM to MP3 Converter until we heard what it did to our test file. Starting a conversion from RealMedia to MP3 could hardly be easier. The straightforward, though unattractive, drag-and-drop application window offers only three options: Load, Batch, and Convert. For some reason, the Batch window contains all the options for MP3 conversion, including variable-bit-rate recording, stereo settings, and a quality slider. The conversion itself went quickly, but somewhere along the way our half-minute RealMedia file got trimmed to 10 seconds. Possibly this is a limitation of the trial version, but we found no information to confirm this. Anyway, we can't vouch for the quality of this program's output. If you're looking for a bridge between the Net and your MP3 player, try other, more full-featured utilities alongside Easy RM to MP3 Converter.

"Crashed & Burned"
Version: Mini-stream RM to MP3 Converter 2.7.3.700
Pros
It was quick and simple the one time it did work.
Cons
Crashed on the first try. Worked the second time and continued to crash thereafter.
Summary
I only had 2 .ram files that I discovered on my computer and I rarely use .ram files. So I decided to convert to .mp3 files. I thought this would be a quick simple project, but nooooo. I should have read the last sentence of the CNET Editor before downloading this one.

"Worked fine, and the output MP3 sounded great"
Version: Mini-stream RM to MP3 Converter 2.7.3.700
Pros
It was quick and did a nice job. No complaints. If I had a need to convert a lot of RAMs to MP3s, or if I was just filthy rich, I'd buy a copy.
Cons
Runs a little slow. But just kick it off and go get a cup of coffee or something.
Summary
Quick and decent RAM to MP3 conversion.
