What is a RA file?

RA (RealAudio) is a proprietary audio format developed by RealNetworks in the 1990s for streaming audio over the internet. It uses various codecs and was one of the first formats optimized for low-bandwidth streaming.

RA was commonly used for internet radio and news broadcasts but has largely fallen out of use in favor of more open and modern formats like MP3 and AAC.

How to open RA files

RA files can be opened using RealPlayer, VLC, and other legacy multimedia players. Some may require codec support or conversion due to format variations.

To make RA files easier to share or use, convert them to MP3 using AnyConv online.
