I think that this company is a loser in the long term because they are terrible at everything they do. Well, maybe that's harsh, but they are certainly not a leader in anything that they do.

Their streaming media player has been outclassed… More

Stock is trading at its Tangible Book value current. Balance sheet looks solid with tons of cash. While It has losing money (I don't remember the last time this company reported a possible EPS), it should be able to take on several more quarters of losses before it has to shut the door.

My biggest concern for Real Network is... it is losing its market share (which was small to begin with) to its competitors, and goes with it is the steady revenue stream. While it is spending 20% of its revenue on R&D, it has not come out with a product that Wow comsumers for a very long time. It needs to have a breakthrough in the media technology, or something that take the competitors by surprise - like Apple did with iPhone.

It needs to improve the bottomline before the stock could perform well again. This is going to be an uphill battle for the management turn things around. Network media market is saturated and maturing, so growth potential becomes limited. Shareholders are going to have to suffer for a long time.
