Rob Glaser photo caption contest now open

We haven’t heard much from bowling aficionado and RealNetworks CEO Rob Glaser since early March when he called Apple “deceptive for not explicitly telling customers that iTunes songs can’t be transferred easily to other devices,” so we thought we’d have some fun in the form of another Glaser photo captioning contest. Despite many calls for more, we haven’t had one since our Bono-Glaser photo caption contest last October.

So what if it’s one of those contests where nobody wins a “real” prize? Who cares! It’s fun anyway. Below is a photo of Rob Glaser, founder and CEO of RealNetworks, Inc. – let’s see what you can do with it!

  2. MDN, Have we sunken this low? I know news is slow, but come on, must we sink to personally abasing people and encouraging others to do so? Where is your dignity?

  3. “as you can see, our program…ummm…give it just a sec…yes! our program gives you instant…oh wait…ok, good, instant access to over 3 billion songs, er, i mean million. Is it hot in here?”

  4. “…you mean a little thingy that you could transfer songs onto, play and listen to? That also would interact with Real Jukebox..? Huh? (long pause) Wow, how’d I miss that one?”
