I don't know much about RealAudio; however, I will venture to offer an
opinion, which you may or may not wish to pass along to your client:

Any embedded music clip on a Web site is likely to be resented by some site
visitors. I guess it depends on what your client is selling and whether or
not they know what their visitors want from the site. 

Visitors could resent it simply because the music slows up the loading of
the site or because they don't like that particular piece. Or they might
resent it because it requires a plugin they don't have. If there's any
doubt at all that visitors will welcome the particular music clip, it would
be wise to simply offer a link to the music that the visitor may click or
not click.
