Na Ga Ha. This is another RealNetworks closed standard. There are
players for windows machines, and PPC based macs, but nothing for a
68k mac (so put that emulator down!) and nothing at all for the Amiga.
There is a realaudio player, that plays only non-streaming files of a
low spec (based on Unix src code), but nothing for rm files.

Sorry.

Maybe ask him to convert them to Cinepak encoded AVIs and grab MOOVid,
which will play quite nicely...
