They are pretty much the same in the fact that they can both read different types of file extensions. They differ in some things, though. I personally prefer Real Player, because it can download videos from the internet, record series, rent movies, etc., almost like a mix between Media Player and VLC. Also, Real Player has it's own extension, RM or RA. Additionally, it has the RealPlayer Converter, which is very useful whenever you want to read files in AAC or WMV -- which, by the way, it is also compatible with.

But VLC has also its own good things. Like, for example, the fact that it is free. Real Player is free too, but it constantly reminds you about the Real Player Plus...or well, premium -- which is annoying.
