o Report: Britain is Top Country for TV Piracy on File-Sharing Networks

London -- Britons are responsible for 18.5% of all of the TV programs downloaded off peer-to-peer file-sharing systems, making it the top country for TV piracy worldwide, according to data from anti-piracy monitoring firm Envisional. By comparison, the U.S. accounts for 7.3% of unauthorized TV downloads, in third place behind Australia (15.6%). That may be because U.S. shows are in high demand in Europe and elsewhere, where they often air on satellite and cable systems months after their U.S. premieres. Fox's "24" was the most-pirated program -- averaging about 100,000 downloads per episode -- along with the network's "The Simpsons" and "The O.C." Also popular among downloaders are "Enterprise" and "Stargate SG-1." Envisional found that episodes of "24" and "Six Feet Under" appeared on file-sharing networks within minutes of their initial airings in the U.S. The prevalence of TV shows on peer-to-peer networks could affect the value of these shows once they do air in foreign territories. For its part, the Motion Picture Association of America has begun to target operators of file-sharing servers on the BitTorrent and eDonkey networks where TV shows are traded freely.

o Microsoft Recalls 14.1 Million Defective Xbox Power Cords

Redmond, Wash. -- Microsoft announced on Thursday that it will recall 14.1 million power cords distributed with its Xbox video game consoles, due to a potential fire hazard from a "rare electrical component failure." The company said all consoles manufactured before Oct. 23, 2003 (except those sold in Continental Europe) require a replacement power cord, as well as all those sold in Europe that were made before Jan. 13, 2004. Microsoft said 30 Xbox power cords -- or fewer than one in 10,000 -- had caused minor injuries or property damage, such as minor hand burns or smoke damage. "This is a preventative step we're choosing to take despite the rarity of these incidents," said Robbie Bach, senior vice president of the home and entertainment division at Microsoft. "We regret the inconvenience, but believe offering consumers a free replacement is the responsible thing to do." Microsoft said Xbox owners can visit Xbox.com to order a replacement cord, which should arrive in two to four weeks.

o Dolby Laboratories Shares Up 38% in IPO

San Francisco -- Audio technology developer Dolby Laboratories saw its shares rise 38% during an initial public offering (IPO) on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday.

o Digital Radio Broadcast Developer iBiquity Lands $30 Million

Columbia, Md. -- iBiquity Digital, a developer of digital radio broadcast technology, said on Thursday that it has landed $30 million in its third round. Previous investors New Venture Partners, Grotech Capital Group, J.P. Morgan Partners, Gannett and Pequot Capital co-led the round, which also included participation from Waller-Sutton Media Partners, Whitney & Co. and MidOcean Capital Partners. In addition, Maryland-based iBiquity said that it has signed a deal to receive up to $30 million more in structured debt financing from DC private equity firm Columbia Partners. The influx of capital gives the company a huge financial boost as it continues to roll out its HD Radio technology, which allows terrestrial radio stations to broadcast a digital signal alongside their traditional analog signals. In recent months, iBiquity has received commitments to deploy the technology -- which digitizes standard AM and FM signals to enable better sound quality and new wireless data services -- at 2,500 radio stations in the U.S.

o Alpha Spacecom Wins Chinese Govt. Contract to Equip Digital Theaters

Hong Kong -- Alpha Spacecom, a Colorado-based firm providing digital cinema conversion services for movie theater exhibitors, announced on Thursday that the Chinese government has approved its proposal to form a joint venture for the conversion of Chinese theaters from film to digital projection systems. The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television of the People's Republic of China will provide $30 million in funding to the Digital Cinema Reconstruction Corporation, a joint venture to be operated by Alpha Spacecom and the state-run China Film Group. "This is a bold move by the PRC to deliver state-of-the-art film entertainment to China's vast and growing leisure/entertainment society," said Alpha Spacecom chairman Fung T. Sien. "Another important benefit is that the digital process promotes international intellectual property rights protections as set forth in China's accession to the WTO and allows exhibitors to control admissions and costs accounting electronically, thus supporting permanent normal trade relations with China." China plans to overtake the U.S. in the number of digital theaters offered by equipping more than 150 by the end of this year. The country has already converted 60 theaters, and the joint venture expects to have completed 400 new installations by the end of 2006.

o Report: High-Income Households Fastest Growing Group of Internet Users

New York -- Internet users with household incomes of more than $150,000 jumped 20% year-over-year to 10.3 million in January 2005, making it the fastest growing demographic group in the market, according to a new report from Nielsen/NetRatings, a provider of Internet audience measurement services. The high-income group also spends the most amount of time online (76 hours per month) and views more web pages (2,126 pages) than any other group, according to the survey. Nielsen/NetRatings found that men and women living in high income households shared similarities in their preferences for travel sites. On the other hand, men visit more financial sites while women are drawn more to entertainment sites.

"That was never the point. We want the game to help us form a more long-term connection with the young person."
