The easy way:
Go to RealOne (which I don't have) and see if you can find a File Associations section in the Preferences. Set the filetypes you want to the program.

The harder way:
Open a window, and find a file of the type you're trying to change (like an mp3). Hold Shift, right click the icon. Find RealOne in the list (you might need to use the browse bit if it's not in there) and select it - make sure 'Always open with this application' or whatever is checked, then click OK. Et voila monsieur!

"there is no software update available from RealOne to support this content"

is there any way to make sure, when you download a song, that it will open with RealOne?

Just do it the second way I told you. But if you're getting that message, it sounds like RealOne can't play whatever format you're trying to use. If you get that when you download, then it is running RealOne like you want it to. But if it won't play it... there's not much I can do for you.

The big question is, why RealOne?!
