From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   RealAudio
  
      A program from {Real Media} for playing
      {audio} over the {Internet}, and the {lossy} audio compression
      format it uses.
  
      The system is implemented as a {client/server} architecture.
      The RealAudio server incorporates an {encoder} which
      compresses sound into RealAudio files.   The client side is a
      {web browser} {plug-in} or {add-on} (a recent version of
      {Internet Explorer} apparently has built-in support for
      RealAudio) which allows the stream of data sent from the
      server to be uncompressed and output using the normal sound
      facilities of the computer, such as a {sound card}.
  
      A 14.4 {KBps} or better {modem} is required, and a 28.8 KBps
      connection is recommended for music-quality sound.
