o Sony Names Sir Howard Stringer as
First Foreign Chairman and CEO
Tokyo -- Japanese electronics and media giant Sony Corporation on
Monday appointed its first foreign chairman and chief executive,
former CBS executive Sir Howard Stringer, who will replace outgoing
company head Nobuyuki Idei. Stringer, who was born in Wales, holds
dual British-American citizenship and speaks no Japanese, was
previously vice chairman at Sony and CEO of Sony Corp. of America.
"As with all great institutions, Sony has built a tremendous legacy
over 60 years. But we cannot let that trap us or inhibit us. We need
to take that legacy and reinvent it," Stringer said. "The dynamics
and competitive landscape have changed. The pace of innovation
across all the businesses in which we compete has changed. So Sony
too must change." Sony also announced that company president
Kunitake Ando will step down, to be replaced by Ryoji Chubachi, an
executive with Sony Electronics.

o Report: 37%
of Americans Went Online for Political News During 2004
Washington -- Seventy-five million Americans, or about 37% of the
adult population, went online to get political news and information
during the 2004 election year, according to a survey conducted by
the Pew Internet & American Life Project. Furthermore, 61% of online
Americans used the Internet to find political news and information,
discuss candidates and debate issues in emails, or participate
directly in the political process by volunteering or giving
contributions to candidates. While television still remains the
primary source of political news for registered voters, the Internet
surpassed radio for the first time, as 18% said they got most
political news last year online, compared with 17% for radio.

o U.K. Record
Industry Settles 23 Suits Against File-Swappers, Files 31 More
London -- The British Phonographic Industry (BPI), a U.K.
record label trade group, announced that it has settled 23 lawsuits
it filed against Internet music file-swappers in October 2004, with
defendants paying penalties of up to $8,600 each. "We have no desire
to drag people through the courts. So we have attempted to reach
fair settlements where we can," said BPI general counsel Geoff
Taylor. The BPI also said it sued 31 additional individuals for
alleged copyright infringement on eight peer-to-peer networks,
including eDonkey, Soulseek, Limewire, Bearshare and Imesh. "If
illegal file-sharers think that they can avoid getting caught by
staying away from the most popular networks like KaZaA, they're
wrong," Taylor added. The BPI's U.S. counterpart, the Recording
Industry Association of America, has now sued over 9,000 individuals
suspected of Internet music file-sharing.

o Second DVD
"Screener" Pirate Charged with Criminal Copyright Infringement
Los Angeles -- Federal authorities have charged a California man
with criminal copyright infringement for uploading a "screener" copy
of the Miramax film "Finding Neverland" onto Internet file-sharing
networks, The Los Angeles Times reported. If convicted, 24-year-old
Rolyn Abugan, of Corona, faces up to one year in prison and a
$100,000 fine. The FBI said Abugan received the screener DVD from
Producers Guild of America member Shawna Chance, who was
unsuccessful playing the film in her DVD player and tried to get a
compatible copy made. Chance gave the DVD to her boyfriend, who in
turn gave it to a co-worker, who then gave it to Abugan -- who
posted it to an Internet file-sharing group called Centropy, which
promised to remove the watermarks that could trace the copy back to
himself and Chance. Abugan is the second individual charged with
leaking an Academy Awards screener DVD onto the Internet; the first,
Russell Sprague, was convicted and recently found dead of an
apparent heart attack in his Los Angeles jail cell while awaiting
sentencing.

o Report: DVD
to Spur Electronic Entertainment Growth in Europe
Scottsdale, Ariz. -- DVD sales and rentals in Europe will grow from
$9.3 billion in 2004 to nearly $17 billion in 2009, spurring
electronic entertainment growth in the five largest European
countries, according to a report from market research firm In-Stat.
While Hollywood studios are reporting strong DVD sales growth in the
U.K., Germany, France, Italy and Spain, In-Stat said
locally-produced DVD content represents the fastest-growing segment.
The report also predicts the number free-to-air digital TV service
subscribers will grow from 4.9 million in 2004 to 23.7 million in
2009, wihle digital terrestrial TV will grow from 4.1% of TV
households in 2004 to nearly 20% by 2009. Meanwhile, In-Stat
predicts cable TV growth will be flat to slightly negative and
for-pay satellite TV will grow by 6%. "New digital delivery services
such as digital terrestrial and IP-TV are not likely to supplant the
DVD business, but rather bring digital entertainment to people by
adding either convenience, mobility, or improved accessibility,"
said In-Stat analyst Gerry Kaufhold.
