o Bertelsmann Settles Napster
Investment Suit With Small Record Label
New York -- German media conglomerate Bertelsmann has settled a
copyright infringement suit filed by Bridgeport Music, a small
Michigan-based record label, stemming from Bertelsmann's $85 million
investment in the Napster file-sharing service in 2000 and 2001, The
New York Times reported. Bertelsmann paid about $50,000 to settle
the claims of contributory copyright infringement from Bridgeport,
paying only the label's legal fees. But the agreement may signal to
larger record labels like Universal and EMI, with pending claims
against Bertelsmann, that they may yet see compensation for what
they see as lost CD sales due to the original, free Napster service.
"The decision to settle the case was not based in any way, shape or
form on the merits of the case," Bridgeport attorney Richard Busch
told The Times. Bertelsmann said it would entertain similar
settlements where it would reimburse legal fees for the major labels
and publishers suing for contributory infringement. "We would hope
that one or more of the other remaining plaintiffs would also
reassess the viability of this litigation," Bertelsmann lawyer Bruce
Rich told The Times. A federal judge recently denied Bertelsmann's
motion to dismiss the charges brought by the major record companies,
who are not deterred from their lawsuits. "[The labels and
publishers] truly believe there are billions of dollars of damages
they will ultimately be entitled to at the end of the process,"
Universal Music president Zach Horowitz told The Times.

o WSJ: Game
Developer Take-Two in Talks With MLB for Exclusive Rights
New York -- The Wall Street Journal recently reported that video
game publisher Take-Two Interactive, known for its blockbuster
"Grand Theft Auto" franchise, may be in talks with Major League
Baseball to secure exclusive rights to use official players, teams,
uniforms and stadiums in its baseball video games. News of the
negotiations follows on Electronic Arts' landmark five-year, $50
million deal with the NFL for exclusive NFL football game rights for
its "Madden NFL" franchise, and its deal to replace Take-Two as the
licensee of the ESPN brand for use in video games. While those deals
could sink Take-Two's "ESPN NFL" game franchise, an exclusive deal
between Take-Two and MLB would likely negatively affect Sony's
baseball game franchise but not Electronic Arts', which does not
make use of official MLB branding.

o Leaked Sony
PSP Update Hints at Web, Office Applications for Handheld Game
Tokyo -- A software update for Sony's new PSP (PlayStation
Portable) handheld video game system that was inadvertently leaked
onto the Internet contains details on potential new applications for
the device, including Web browsing, e-mail, text-to-speech, word
processing and calculator functions. While Sony confirmed that the
leak was genuine, it warned that the update may in fact damage PSP
hardware if installed by owners. The addition of such non-gaming
functions to the PSP -- which can already play music and movies
pre-recorded on its proprietary Universal Media Disc format -- would
set it apart from the more gaming-centered DS handheld recently
released by rival Nintendo. Separately, Sony has hinted that it may
open up its Universal Media Disc, a 2.4-inch, 1.8GB format, so that
outside companies can publish music and movies that can be played
back on the PSP.

o Activision
Acquires Video Game Developer Vicarious Visions
Santa Monica, Calif. -- Video game publisher Activision announced
on Thursday that it has acquired New York-based developer Vicarious
Visions, including the company's Alchemy game development middleware
technology. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Vicarious Visions has developed titles including "Spider-Man 2" for
the Nintendo DS and "Tony Hawk's Underground 2" for PlayStation 2,
and is currently co-developing "Doom 3" for the Xbox with id
Software. Santa Monica, Calif.-based Activision said it signed
long-term employment contracts with the company's management team
and key employees. "Vicarious Visions' talented development team and

o Mobile
Music Download Service Chaoticom Licenses EMI Tracks
Andover, Mass. -- Chaoticom, a provider of mobile music download

o America
Online Expands Search Capabilities
Dulles, Va. -- Hoping to capture a larger share of the rapidly
expanding paid search market, America Online on Thursday said that
it has launched a new, enhanced version of its search tool The
company said that it has teamed with several technology partners to
add features such as an updated design that moves away from a tabbed
interface, a new sorting feature designed to help users more quickly
narrow searches and "snapshot" results that present information such
as local movie times and current events at the top of results pages.
At the heart of the upgrade, however, are features geared toward
paid search and e-commerce, such as shopping results that allow
users to quickly purchase products for which they've searched. AOL
also said that it is working with Ingenio to add a new advertising
system that will only charge advertisers after a phone call is made
to their business as a result of the ad.

o Report:
Affluent Adults Rely More Heavily on Internet
New York -- Affluent adults rely more heavily on the Internet as
their first source of information than the average person, according
to a new report from market research publisher Packaged Facts.
According to a survey of nearly 30,000 respondents, 32% of adults
overall use the Internet as their primary source of information,
compared with 42% among the mass affluent (two-or-more person
households with an income of $100,000-$149,000) and 50% among the
highly affluent (households with incomes above $150,000). Also, 34%
of adults said that they have made an online purchase in the past 12
months, compared with 57% of the highly affluent.

companies are proving that mainstream artists can be fairly
compensated and consumers can enjoy the benefits of P2P file
sharing."

accepted at the Sundance Film Festival have opted out of providing
them to the online festival, but 33 of the entries will be available
for anyone to view online through June.
