Can anybody suggest me some free software either in NT or in Linux to play the RealAudio .RA files?

Yes, you can get RealPlayer G8 for Linux. Works great.

It costs money "for CD production and shipment".
I will need to have an account in some non-Russian bank for this.

As I recall, Netscape used to include a RealPlayer with it (free). I don't remember the version of Netscape, though... maybe it's Sibcon (Netscape Russian version)?

There's a realaudio plugin for winamp somewhere that I used to have.
Search the plugin pages on winamp.com I think. Or just use google. :)

The fact that Real has recently discontinued it's free versions of RealPlayer may be a problem.
