o U.S. House Judiciary
Subcommittee Approves Internet Gambling Ban
Washington - The U.S. House Judiciary subcommittee on
Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security on Wednesday approved a bill
that would ban Internet gambling in the U.S., Reuters reported. The
bill would make it a crime for online casinos to accept payments
from credit cards, checks, and wire or Internet transfers. "Virtual
betting parlors have attempted to avoid the application of United
States law by locating themselves offshore and out of our
jurisdictional reach," said the bill's author, Rep. Bob Goodlatte
(R-Va.). The bill now moves before the full House Judiciary
Committee.

o CBS Launches "Innertube"
Ad-Supported Free Broadband Channel
Los Angeles - CBS on Thursday launched "Innertube," an
ad-supported broadband channel on CBS.com that will offer both
original Web series and the network's TV programming for free.
Initially, innertube will offer a rotating selection of three shows
each day, including "Greek to Chic," "BBQ Bill," "Animate This!" and
"Beyond Survivor". Innertube will soon offer episodes of shows that
were cancelled before their on-air seasons finished, such as "Fire
Me…Please" and "Love Monkey." CBS did not say when it plans to begin
offering episodes of primetime series for free streaming. "Our
company possesses some of the world's finest entertainment
programming assets and brands, and we will continue on a strategic
course to find as many distribution channels and new revenue streams
for them as possible," said CBS president and CEO Leslie Moonves.
"With this broadband channel, we've essentially bypassed cable and
created a general entertainment outlet utilizing existing creative
and content resources." CBS rival ABC has already launched a similar
service that offers free streaming episodes of shows including
"Lost" and "Desperate Housewives" that feature embedded, un-skippable
commercials. NBC, which offers "Today" and "Meet the Press" for free
online, and Fox have also announced plans to offer ad-supported
broadband channels.

o Sony
Delays Release of Blu-ray Disc Movie Titles by One Month
Los Angeles - Sony Home Entertainment has announced that
it will delay the release of its first titles on its parent
company's Blu-ray Disc format from May 23 until June 20, when the
first Blu-Ray DVD players are available in stores. The Samsung
BD-P100, the first consumer Blu-ray player, is expected to be
released on June 25. Sony Home Entertainment president Benjamin
Feingold said the delay was announced "in an effort to ensure a more
coordinated launch." The first players and movie titles utilizing
Toshiba's rival HD DVD format have already hit the market. Toshiba
spokeswoman Jodi Sally told USA Today that initial sales of the
devices were "good," adding, "to keep up with demand, we will be
receiving product from overseas." Japan's Asahi Shimbun newspaper
reported that an initial shipment on March 31 of 1,000 HD DVD
players in Japan has almost sold out.

o RIAA
Identifies 12 U.S. Cities as "Piracy Hot-Spots"
Washington - The Recording Industry Association of America
(RIAA) on Thursday named 12 U.S. "priority" cities that feature
"savvy multi-state criminal operations" making and distributing
pirated CDs. The RIAA estimated domestic CD piracy losses at $300
million, adding that more than 5 million pirated music products were
seized and 3,300 arrests made last year. The RIAA will step up law
enforcement training and commit additional investigative resources
in the following cities in the coming year: Atlanta, Austin,
Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York,
Philadelphia, Providence, San Diego and San Francisco. "As the
pirate music trade continues to evolve, criminals are enhancing
their products and attempting to dupe consumers with illegal CDs
that look authentic," said Brad Buckles, executive vice president of
anti-piracy for the RIAA. "Today's sophisticated pirate trade
demands even greater awareness and action from us, our partners in
the music community, law enforcement and music fans."

o New Red Hot
Chili Peppers Album Leaked Online
Los Angeles - "Flea," bass player for The Red Hot Chili
Peppers, has urged fans in a website posting not to download a "poor
sound quality" version of the band's upcoming album "Stadium
Arcadium" that has leaked onto file-sharing sites. "I think it is a
fair deal for everyone, and for people to just steal a poor sound
quality version of it for free because some a**hole stole it and put
it on the Internet is sad to me," Flea wrote on the band's site. The
band's spokeswoman told Reuters that the source of the leak was
being tracked down, which could have come from a journalist, or from
someone involved in the recording or manufacturing process. If
caught, the source would be subject to a new federal law that
punishes pre-release leaks with up to 11 years in prison.

Broadband Policy Summit - May 9-10,
2006 - Washington, DC
The 2nd Annual Broadband Policy Summit 2006 will be held on
May 9 -10 in
Washington, DC. This unique event tackles the tough questions
plaguing lawmakers,
regulators and business executives as Congress and the FCC
sort through the thicket of
outdated laws that govern communications services. Last year,
200 leading policy
makers, attorneys, technologists and investors attended the
summit. This year's event will examine the latest information
on broadband and IP communications business, legislative and
regulatory trends, and how policy makers plan to grapple with
the unprecedented pace of broadband-related service advances.
