audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin actually corresponds to our .rpm file format 
(unfortunately independantly chosen at around the same time RedHat 
started their .rpm's).

Our .rpm's are basically playlists. RealAudio (audio/x-pn-realaudio) has 
an extension of .ra

The last one makes me nervous, as audio/x-pn-realaudio and 
audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin are two distinctly different mime types for 
us (.rpm vs .ra).
