o EMI Licenses Songs for Qtrax
Ad-Supported File-Sharing Service
New York - Major record label EMI Music announced on
Monday that it has licensed its catalog to Qtrax, an
advertising-supported peer-to-peer music distribution service.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Developed by New
York-based LTDnetwork, Qtrax will offer two service tiers: a free,
ad-supported version that lets users download tracks in a
proprietary format and listen to them several times without paying;
and a subscription-based second tier. Users will also be able to
purchase and download songs a la carte from Qtrax. The paid
subscription tier will use Microsoft's Janus digital rights
management technology to allow unlimited downloads and transfer of
songs to Microsoft-based portable media players. EMI said it has
already begun registering its catalog with Qtrax's copyright
filtering system, which is powered by Audible Magic. "We think that
any ad-supported model should be offered in a way that maintains, or
even enhances the value of music, and we believe Qtrax does that by
offering a good consumer experience and significant up-selling
opportunities," said David Munns, chairman and CEO of EMI Music
North America. "Our collaboration with Qtrax will give us great
consumer insight and help us gauge the boundaries between sampling
and purchasing music." Qtrax plans to launch a beta test of its
service in the U.S. later this year, but says it will not officially
launch until it has licensed songs from the other three major
labels: Sony BMG, Warner and Universal.

Install 20-inch TV Monitors at Gas Station Pumps
Detroit - Former executives from Yahoo and advertising
agency WPP Worldwide on Monday announced the launch of Gas Station
TV, a new venture that will install 20-inch, Internet-based TV
monitors at gas station pumps. The Detroit-based company, founded by
former Yahoo marketing executive David Leider and former WPP
Worldwide CFO Stephen Kuehn, has received an undisclosed amount of
funding from DHW Capital. Aside from advertising sold by Disney's
ABC, the daylight-viewable LCD monitors will offer content including
ABC "News You Can Use" segments, local news, AccuWeather forecasts
and traffic data from ABC affiliates. Gas Station TV's partners
include Delphi, which will manufacture the monitors; Gilbarco Veeder-Root,
a large maker of gas station retail equipment; and Murphy Oil USA,
which operates 900 gas stations in Wal-Mart parking lots. Gas
Station TV is already available at some Murphy USA gas stations in
Dallas. The company plans to expand to 100 stations by September and
to 400 gas stations in the top 10 U.S. markets by the end of the
year.
