Realplayer allows save option
Real says that the latest version of it's digital music player would allow users to save Internet video.Real will let consumers grab the clips and also store them on DVDs starting in June.
With RealPlayer, a "download this video" button will hover next to video seen on thousands of Web sites, RealNetworks said.
