A bunch of old .ram files

I'm in the process of reclaiming all of the old ANR content and came across a bunch of old ram audio file interviews. Weren't these listened to with Realtime? Some of them are pretty cool. What should these be converted to? Does anyone use Realtime anymore? Anyone want to help?

VLC will probably play them just fine.

Not familiar. It it common? I just don't want to waste my time with something no one can hear. Although it'd be a shame if these were to disappear forever.

Yeah, VLC Player is great in that it plays nearly any file, audio or video. It's obviously not as common as like Windows Media Player or iTunes, but it's decently well-known.

Yeah it worked like a charm. Some interesting old audio files. Haven't listened to some of these in almost 10 years. They're short, but cool. Some are from 1991.

vlc is clutch. works great for stuff like that, or that random porn that you can't seem to open in anything else. just saw the "interviews" tab added on the homepage, I'm definitely looking forward to checking those out when they go up.

I think there's some good ones in there. A couple with Pete, one with Martyn, one with Casey, one with Jane, one each with the directors of Three Days...
