Does anyone know of any utilities that can convert Real Media files (with .RM extensions) into MP3 or Wave files? All the audio converters that I've got, and those I've found on the internet, don't support RM files.

Alex,
There are no programs that will convert .rm or .ra files apparently
to quote from RA's license "The product may not be used to develop any application which has the capability of streaming, playing, or encoding to any file format or data type that competes will RN (RealNetworks), as determined by RN in its sole discretion." In plain English - no program is allowed to convert a RA file.

Bit of a bummer then,

I wouldn't thank Paul, he threw you off the scent entirely and got a little flighty with his 'quotes'

Only kidding!

I've also got an old version of StreamBox Ripper that can convert .rm and .ra to mp3 or wave, can also convert in batches
