If you go into the open file dialogue of a player, you can scroll through 
the file types drop-down, and see all the types it will recognize and load. 
I found both m3u and pls lissted in the drop-down of both WMP and 
Realplayer. So long as you don't have Real Audio formatted sources pointed 
to, you should be able to play either a m3u or a pls playlist in either 
player. If there are real audio sources pointed to in either sort of 
playlist, of course, you'll have to play it in Realplayer. But it should 
play.
