o Report: U.S. Video Game Sales Up 15.6% in April

New York - Countering an ongoing sales slump, U.S. video game sales were up 15.6% in April, over the same period a year ago, according to preliminary data from market research firm NPD Funworld. Popular titles during the month included "Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion," "Kingdom Hearts II" and "The Godfather". Forbes.com polled various analysts on the whether the rise will be sustained -- countering several months of soft sales -- or fade in coming months. While Merrill Lynch analyst Justin Post expects sales to rise in the next several months, based on Xbox 360 shipments and price cuts on other consoles, Cowen & Co. analyst Lowell Singer believes the April sales tally was an anomaly and soft sales will continue for the rest of the year.

o Major League Baseball in Legal Dispute with Fantasy Site Over Stats

New York - Major League Baseball's Internet arm has sued a company that provides real-world statistics on players for use in online fantasy baseball leagues, arguing the company needs to purchase a license for the data, The New York Times reported. St. Louis-based CBC Distribution and Marketing says the data it publishes are newsworthy facts, protected by the First Amendment, and do not contain copyrighted or trademarked images of the players or logos of their teams. "(CBC's) business here is not publishing statistics. The business here is running a league," Major League Baseball Advanced Media CEO Bob Bowman told The Times. The league has licensed statistics, as well as logos and images, to 7 operators of fantasy sites this year, including CBS SportsLine -- down from 19 last season. The case at hand, which will come to trial on Sept. 5, will pit the players' claims to a "right of publicity" with regard to how their names are used in commercial ventures, against traditional First Amendment free press protections.

Dulles, Va. - Two weeks after first leaking the news, AOL on Tuesday officially launched a new service that will allow the 41 million users of its instant messenger to receive free incoming calls through their computers. Through its new AIM Phoneline service, the company said that IM users will be able to get free, local phone numbers to receive the calls, as well as free online voicemail. The company is offering an upgraded service, which allows users to make calls to anyone in the U.S. or 30 other countries, for $14.90 a month.
