o Report: Microsoft to Launch
Portable Media Player by Christmas
New York - Sources close to the matter told Reuters on
Wednesday that Microsoft will launch a wireless digital music and
video player by Christmas, in a bid to grab market share from
Apple's iPod. The device will reportedly allow users to download
media over-the-air. "They're proposing an iTunes model approach," a
source told Reuters. "They're now interested in controlling the
whole vertical stack of technology from the device to the service to
the software." The Microsoft portable player project is headed
Robbie Bach, president of the company's entertainment and services
division, and J. Allard, vice president of the team that launched
Microsoft's Xbox video game console. Microsoft declined to comment
on the Reuters story.

o Sales Growth for
Digital Albums, Songs Buoy Industry in First Half of 2006
Los Angeles - While physical album sales dropped 4.2% in
the first half of 2006, strong growth in sales of digital albums
(126%) and singles (77%) boosted the overall industry to a slight
sales increase over the same period a year ago, according to The
Hollywood Reporter, which cited Nielsen SoundScan data. Physical
album sales from January through June totaled 270.6 million units,
compared with 14.7 million digital albums and 281 million individual
song downloads. Universal Music Group accounted for 31.6% of total
album sales so far this year, followed by Sony BMG (23.9%),
independent distributors (19.3%), Warner Music Gropu (15.9%) and EMI
(9%).

o Sirius
Adds 600,000 Subscribers During Q2, Outpacing XM's 398,000
New York - Sirius Satellite Radio, a provider of
subscription radio programming, announced on Thursday that it beat
analysts' expectations for the second quarter of 2006, adding
600,460 net subscribers, a 64% increase over the same period a year
ago. The company now counts a total of 4.68 million subscribers, up
158% from its total at the end of the second quarter of 2005. Sirius
continues to project it will have 6.2 million subscribers by the end
of the year. By comparison, rival XM Satellite Radio added just
398,000 net subscribers during the second quarter, less than the
430,000 analysts had expected. The company still leads overall, with
a total of 6.89 million subscribers, but recently lowered its
year-end projection from 9 million to 8.5 million subscribers. XM
cited supply shortages of its radios and overall weak retail sales
for its slowed subscriber growth.

o WSJ: AOL
Mulling Plan to Make Service Free
Dulles, Va. - In a bold move to reinvent its business
model, AOL could soon begin offering its service free of charge to
users who access its content either from a high-speed connection or
through another dial-up provider, The Wall Street Journal reported
on Thursday. Under a proposal from CEO Jonathan Miller, the company
would fundamentally change from an Internet service provider to a
content provider that derives the vast majority of its revenue from
advertising. Subscribers who choose to stay with AOL as their
dial-up provider would still have to pay their normal monthly fee --
as much as $25.90 a month -- under the plan, though that number is
expected to decline drastically from the current 18.6 million, as
many migrate to high-speed connections to take advantage of the
offer. AOL would lose as much as $2 billion in subscription revenue
under the proposal, but hopes to make it up with increased ad
revenue and lower expenses, with thousands of marketing and customer
service jobs likely eliminated. AOL has been steadily losing
subscribers since the end of 2002, when it had about 26.5 million.
The Journal said that a final decision by parent Time Warner is at
least several weeks away.

o IFPI to
Sue Yahoo China Over Links to Pirated MP3s
London - An international trade group of record labels
announced that it plans to sue Yahoo China for copyright
infringement, saying the site provides links to unauthorized free
song downloads. The International Federation of the Phonographic
Industry (IFPI) said it has not received an acceptable response to a
letter it sent Yahoo China in April 2006, in which it asked the
company to remove the MP3 links. The IFPI, which also estimates that
85% of all music consumed in China is pirated, is now taking the
preliminary steps required by Chinese law for filing a lawsuit.
"Yahoo China has been blatantly infringing our members' rights. We
have started the process and as far as we're concerned we're on the
track to litigation," said IFPI chairman and CEO John Kennedy,
adding, "If negotiation can prevent that, so be it."
