o Report: Online Music Sales to Offset Physical Sales Decline in Europe

Amsterdam - Sales of physical music formats (CD, DVD) in Europe are projected to fall 30% over the next five years, but online music sales will grow to represent a third of the overall market and make up for this loss, according to a report from market research firm Forrester. While total European music sales are forecasted to grow from $11.41 billion in 2006 to just $13.21 billion in 2011, online sales in the region will skyrocket from $335.2 million this year to $4.7 billion during the same period, Forrester said.

o House Bill Would Facilitate Internet Video Services from Verizon, AT&T

Washington - A bill introduced by U.S. House Republicans would make it easier for telecom providers like Verizon and AT&T to provide Internet-based digital TV services, Reuters reported. The bill would let these companies obtain a national license, while allowing local governments to collect up to 5% of gross revenue; recently, Verizon has been negotiating agreements with individual cities and counties to launch its FiOS TV service. "With new competitors preparing to enter the ongoing race between cable and satellite, the law needs to change," said House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas). Along with Barton, sponsors of the bill included Reps. Fred Upton (R-Mich.) and Bobby Rush (D-Ill.). The bill is scheduled for a Committee hearing on Thursday, although some consumer advocates oppose the legislation. "The provisions will not stop the cable and telephone companies from degrading Internet traffic, and they do not contain strong enough penalties to discourage misbehavior," Public Knowledge president Gigi Sohn told Reuters.

o Report: Mobile Video Market to Reach $500 Million by 2010

New York - JupiterResearch, a New York-based business and technology market research firm, on Tuesday said that a new survey it conducted shows that 41% of mobile phone users "are interested in some form of video service on their mobile phone." While adoption of mobile video on phones has been somewhat low to date -- only 2% of respondents said they subscribed to such a service -- 17% said they were interested in watching "live" TV on their cell phones and 11% indicated interest in short video clips. Based on its survey results, JupiterResearch predicts that demand for video on mobile phones will generate $501 million in revenues by 2010, up from $62 million in 2005.
