o Apple's iTunes Surpasses 1 Billion Song Downloads

Cupertino, Calif. - Apple said that one billion songs have now been downloaded from its iTunes Music Store since it was launched less than three years ago. The billionth song, "Speed of Sound," was purchased as part of Coldplay's X&Y album by Alex Ostrovsky from West Bloomfield, Mich. Ostrovsky won a 20-inch iMac, 10 iPods and a $10,000 iTunes gift certificate, and Apple will establish a scholarship to Julliard in his name. Apple said that iTunes currently features more than two million songs, as well as 35,000 podcasts, 16,000 audiobooks, 3,500 music videos and a variety of short films and TV shows.

o MPAA Sues Sites That Link to Pirated Movies on Newsgroups, P2P Networks

Los Angeles - The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) announced this week that it has filed lawsuits against a number of websites that provide links to illegal movie downloads from the BitTorrent and eDonkey file-sharing networks, as well as from Usenet newsgroups. "Website operators who abuse technology to facilitate infringements of copyrighted works by millions of people are not anonymous -- they can and will be stopped," said John G. Malcolm, executive vice president and director of worldwide anti-piracy operations for the MPAA. The MPAA said TorrentSpy.com and IsoHunt.com are two of the most popular sites used for finding pirated content; actions were also taken against BThub.com, TorrentBox.com, NiteShadow.com and Ed2k-It.com. The group said that Torrentbox.com and IsoHunt.com boasted of having enabled over one million downloads of the movie "Fantastic Four," and over 4.4 million downloads of "Aliens". The MPAA also for the first time targeted sites that enable newsgroup users to find pirated content, such as NZB-Zone.com, BinNews.com and DVDRs.net. The lawsuits are unique in that they target sites that provide indexes of locations where pirated files may be found, rather than sites that provide the downloads themselves. "We haven't had a case that really tests the case of whether providing an indexing service by itself an infringement," Electronic Frontier Foundation attorney Fred von Lohmann told CNET News.com.

o Ted Turner Stepping Down From Board of Time Warner

Dulles, Va. - Time Warner, the parent company of America Online, said on Friday that Ted Turner will be stepping down from the company's board of directors. Turner, who has often clashed with Time Warner management, gave no specific reason for stepping down. Turner saw the value of his large stock holdings in Time Warner drop sharply in the years following the company's merger with America Online. "It is after much deliberation that I have decided not to stand for reelection at the annual meeting," said Turner. "I have enjoyed working with Dick Parsons as well as the other board members and the management team."

o MySpace Parent Co. Founder Sues Over News Corp. Purchase Price

Los Angeles - The founder of Intermix Media, the parent company of social networking site MySpace, has filed suit against his former company, claiming the $580 million paid by News Corp. to acquire Intermix and MySpace was far too little. "It's something that everyone would've seen is worth in the several-billion-dollar range, MySpace by itself," Greenspan told The Los Angeles Times. Greenspan's suit claims the company's board breached their duty to shareholders by failing to conduct an auction to obtain maximum value for the company; the suit also names VantagePoint Venture Associates, which helped facilitate the deal. "It's clear that if Intermix had provided current revenue figures and projections for MySpace along with user growth projections, shareholders would never have approved the News Corp. transaction," said Greenspan. "It is my goal to see News Corp 'square up' with the rest of the Intermix shareholders by either voluntarily unwinding the MySpace transaction and allowing a proper auction process to occur, or paying us what we deserve via providing several billion dollars of compensation,"

o National Archives, Google Team to Put Historic Films Online

Washington - The National Archives in Washington and Internet search giant Google on Friday announced the launch of a pilot program that will digitize and make historic films available for free online. Under a non-exclusive deal, researchers and the general public will be able to access a collection of 103 historic movies, documentaries and other films from the National Archives through Google Video as well as the National Archives website. "For the first time, the public will be able to view this collection of rare and unusual films on the Internet," said Allen Weinstein, archivist of the United States. The National Archives and Google said that they are exploring the possibilities of expanding the online film collection and making the Archives' extensive textual holdings available through the Internet, as well.

o Loudeye to Raise $8.25 Million in Stock Offering

Seattle - Loudeye Technologies, a provider of branded digital music stores and other digital media services, announced this week that it plans to raise $8.25 million through a secondary stock offering. The company will use the proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. Seattle-based Loudeye laid off an undisclosed number of staff earlier this month, as part of a plan to cut costs by $2.5 million per quarter. The company also said its shares are in danger of being delisted by the Nasdaq, for failing to maintain the $1 minimum listing requirement for 30 consecutive days.
