o Top Executives Depart Major
Record Label Sony BMG
New York - Major record label Sony BMG Music Entertainment
announced on Thursday that the chairman and president of its Sony
Music Label Group have resigned from the company, part of an ongoing
shake-up of the company's executives since the 2004 merger of Sony
and BMG. Sony Music chairman Don Ienner and president Michele
Anthony, both industry veterans, stepped down on Thursday. The New
York Times reported that the company has seen much infighting
between U.S. executives at Sony Music and BMG since the merger of
the labels, over executive salaries and marketing of artists. The
company also faced an embarrassing and costly recall of CDs -- and
still faces several lawsuits and an FTC inquiry -- after it was
discovered that anti-piracy software embedded on the discs could
open computers to malicious attacks. Rob Stringer, chairman and CEO
of Sony BMG's U.K. unit, and brother of Sony chairman Howard
Stringer, will take over as president of Sony Music Label Group in
the U.S. on Sept. 1; Sony BMG COO Tim Bowen will helm the company
until then.

o Minnesota Passes Law
Fining Minors Who Try to Buy 17+ Video Games
St. Paul, Minn. - Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R)
yesterday signed a bill into law that slaps a $25 fine on minors who
attempt to purchase video games rated "M" for Mature or "AO" for
Adults Only. While the law will not fine retailers who sell the
games to those under 17, it does require them to post signs
informing customers of the new law in their stores. The
Entertainment Software Association, a video game industry trade
group, said in a statement that it plans to file suit in federal
court to have the law overturned. "Six courts in five years,
including the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals which governs
Minnesota, have struck down similar laws, ruling that they were
unconstitutional," said ESA president Doug Lowenstein. "This has
resulted in legal costs of nearly one million dollars to the
taxpayers of the states in which these bills were passed, and
countless wasted hours spent by government officials attempting to
defend the laws."

o RCA
Releases First HD DVD Player in U.S.
Indianapolis, Ind. - Consumer electronics manufacturer
Thomson on Friday introduced its first HD DVD player in the U.S.,
the $499 RCA HDV5000. The device, which is based on Toshiba's
next-generation HD DVD format, can output HD content through an HDMI
1.1 interface in either 720p or 1080i resolution, but not the 1080p
format. Other HD DVD player models are already available from
Samsung and Toshiba. Sony's first player for its rival Blu-ray Disc
format is expected to hit the market next month; Sony will also ship
millions of Blu-ray drives when it launches the PlayStation 3 in
November.

o BBC to Offer
Live Webcasts of World Cup Matches to Britons
London - The BBC announced this week that it has signed a
deal allowing it to broadcast all World Cup soccer games live on the
Internet in the U.K. The broadband webcasts, which also include
four-minute highlight videos of the matches, will be restricted to
U.K. residents who pay the BBC's license fee. "We know a lot of
online viewing is done in the office, so we suspect this will allow
people both to do their job and to keep up with the very latest
action from Germany," said Roger Mosey, BBC director of sport.

Columbia, Md. - With the adoption of its technology rising
among Japanese auto makers, iBiquity Digital, the developer and

Japanese automakers. The company, which has represented several
other U.S. and European companies, will now provide in-country
