RealMedia (RM) is a multimedia container format that is proprietary to RealNetworks. RealNetworks designed RM to stream content over the Internet. RM compresses video with a RealVideo codec and audio with a RealAudio codec.
As a proprietary format, an RM file opens by default in RealPlayer, which RealNetworks developed. If RealPlayer is missing, then download it here.
Other programs that can open an RM file include VLC media player, MPlayer, and CrystalPlayer. For mobile, on Apple iOS, try OPlayer HD, and VLC media player for Android.

Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) is Apple’s lossless audio format, stored inside an M4A container. It compresses a recording to roughly half its original size while preserving every sample, so decoding returns audio identical to the source CD or WAV. ALAC is the natural choice for lossless libraries in the Apple ecosystem, and Apple released it as open-source in 2011, which broadened support well beyond its own devices.
On Apple devices, ALAC plays directly in the Music app, iTunes, or QuickTime with no setup at all.
Elsewhere, VLC media player, foobar2000, and Android all read ALAC. Since ALAC files carry the .m4a extension, they look identical to lossy AAC files in a file listing — check the track properties to tell them apart. To free up space or play the music on limited hardware, convert it with our M4A to MP3 tool.
