o U.K. High Court Orders ISPs to
Identify 31 File-Swappers
London -- The U.K. High Court has ordered local six Internet
service providers (ISPs) to provide the British Phonographic
Industry (BPI) with the names and addresses of 31 individuals
alleged to have uploaded large numbers of music files onto
peer-to-peer file-sharing networks. "Once again, the Court has
accepted that BPI has evidence that file-sharers in the U.K. are
infringing copyright and has ruled that the identities of these 31
individuals should be disclosed so that the BPI can take legal
action," said BPI General Counsel Geoff Taylor. "(This) result is a
blow for illegal uploaders who believe that the law simply does not
apply to them." The BPI said it planned to contact the individuals
concerned, set out the details of their infringements and offer them
the opportunity to settle the case before proceedings are issued.
The ISPs in question now have less than two weeks to provide the
requested information.

o MobiTV Signs
Deal to Stream Live MLB Games to Cell Phones
New Orleans -- MobiTV, a provider of live streaming TV content
for mobile phones, announced on Monday that it has signed an
exclusive three-year agreement with Major League Baseball Advanced
Media, to offer live streaming video and radio broadcasts of MLB
games. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Last year,
MobiTV offered live streaming audio of baseball games for cell
phones through its Gameday Audio service. The full-game live
streaming TV service, subject to blackouts in local markets, will
also offer video highlights on-demand, game photos and stories,
statistical leaderboards and live box scores. The MobiTV live
baseball TV service, currently available for Sprint, Cingular/AT&T
and Midwest Wireless subscribers with compatible handsets, is
scheduled to launch on Tuesday.

o Dutch ISPs
Agree to Forward Copyright Notices to File-Swappers
Amsterdam -- The Associated Press reported on Monday that five
Dutch Internet service providers have agreed to partly cooperate
with the recording industry's efforts to target their subscribers
with copyright infringement actions on peer-to-peer networks. While
the ISPs stopped short of supplying the Brain Institute, a Dutch
entertainment industry trade group, with the names and addresses of
their alleged file-swapping subscribers -- they agreed to pass along
warnings to the subscribers indicating that copyright infringement
is illegal. "This is a service, a warning to clients that they are
doing things that are against the law," Maaike Scholten, spokeswoman
for two of the providers, HetNet and Planet Internet, told AP. Brain
Institute director Tim Kuik told the Associated Press the letters
would also demand that downloaders pay for songs, movies and other
copyrighted content they have downloaded, and that the Brain
Institute expects to eventually file suit against those who don't.
"We'll see what happens to them if they don't pay," Kuik remarked.

o Microsoft
Pays $60 Million to Settle Burst.com Patent Infringement Suit
Santa Rosa, Calif. -- Burst.com, a provider of streaming media
technology, announced that it has agreed to settle its patent
infringement case against Microsoft, with Microsoft agreeing to pay
Burst a one-time license fee of $60 million. Santa Rosa,
Calif.-based Burst.com initially sued Microsoft in 2002, for patent
infringement of its patented technology that accelerates the
delivery of online video. "We spent over a decade developing and
patenting Burst technology in anticipation of the markets that are
now emerging. With this action behind us, the company will now focus
on its other important opportunities," said Burst CEO Richard Lang.
The company plans to put the settlement money towards paying off
certain liabilities and additional patent infringement actions, and
will also distribute a "substantial portion" as a cash dividend to
shareholders.

o Viacom,
Activision Settle Litigation Over "Star Trek" Game License
Santa Monica, Calif. -- Video game publisher Activision has
announced that it settled its litigation with Viacom Consumer
Products over a license agreement to create video games based on
Viacom's "Star Trek" property. Terms of the settlement were not
disclosed, other than to note that as a result, all outstanding
litigation between the companies has been dropped. In its 2003
lawsuit, Santa Monica, Calif.-based Activision alleged that Viacom
had allowed the Star Trek franchise to stagnate -- releasing only
one film and one television series since it signed a licensing
agreement in 1998 -- which negatively impacted Activision's ability
to reap profits from related game sales. In a statement, both
companies said they were "very pleased to resolve the matter
amicably and look forward to working together in the future on other
projects."
