o Apple Likely to Restate
Financial Results Since 2002
Cupertino, Calif. - Shares of Apple dropped nearly 2% on
Friday after the computer and portable music giant said that it will
likely need to restate its financial results since late 2002 as a
result of irregularities in its stock option grants. Apple had
previously said that an internal investigation had revealed
irregularities related to the issuance of some stock option grants
made between 1997 and 2001. Now, however, the company said that it
has discovered more problems that will force it to restate financial
statements and record non-cash charges for compensation expenses. As
a result of the investigation, Apple is delaying its quarterly
report for the period ended July 1.

o Google, Associated
Press Reach Licensing Agreement for Online News
San Francisco - Google and news organization the
Associated Press confirmed this week that they reached a licensing
agreement several months ago that allows Google to publish AP news
stories on its Web services. Google had already been providing links
to AP stories published by newspaper partners through its Google
News service; the new agreement goes further, although neither
company provided many details to reporters. "It's a licensing
agreement that lets us use original AP content in new ways than we
have used in the past for Google News," Google spokeswoman Sonya
Boralv told Reuters. Financial terms of the licensing agreement were
also not disclosed. A lawsuit filed last year by Agence France
Presse (AFP) accuses Google of copyright infringement for its
lifting of AFP images, headlines and news story snippets for
indexing on Google News. Google has maintained that Google News
makes "fair use" of AFP and other news organizations' copyright
content; the case is due to come before the U.S. District Court in
D.C.

o Music
Retailers Call for Interoperable Digital Rights Management
Marlton, N.J. - The National Association of Recording
Merchandisers (NARM), a trade group of music and entertainment
retailers, this week released a statement calling for interoperable
digital rights management (DRM) systems for online music retailers.
The statement was aimed indirectly at Apple, whose iTunes Store
prevents consumers from listening to purchased songs on devices
other than its own iPods. "If consumers are discouraged by
compatibility constraints and conflicts, we fear they will be less
inclined to purchase more music and other digital entertainment
content, and may instead choose illegal options," the statement
reads. "While necessary, DRM systems and standards should not
compromise these experiences and erode the very consumer confidence
that is essential to achieving the full potential of digital
delivery." NARM's members, who include Best Buy, Wal-Mart
wholesalers and Borders, account for 85% of the music sold in the
U.S. The NARM statement further urged the content and hardware
communities to investigate new alternatives to current DRM if
compatibility cannot be achieved.

o Apple Refutes
Norwegian Watchdog Claims That iTunes is Unfair
Oslo, Norway - Apple has denied charges made by Norway's
Consumer Council that the company breached some of the country's
laws with the restrictive terms of its iTunes Music Store, according
to published reports. The Council formally complained to Apple that
consumers should be able to play songs purchased on iTunes on any
MP3 player. In a reply to the Council this week from Apple, the
company agreed it should more clearly indicate to Norwegian
consumers that iTunes songs will only play on iPods, but rejected
claims that the practice was unfair. "It's very difficult to see how
locking consumers into the iPod is preserving the rights of any
given artist...It's just not replying to (the complaint). Apple is
trying to 'smoke screen' it away," Torgeir Waterhouse, senior
adviser at the Norwegian Consumer Council, told CNET News.com. The
Council has yet to make a final decision, but may choose to impose a
fine on Apple or shut down its iTunes Store in Norway. Apple has
faced similar claims of unfair competition from France and several
other Scandinavian countries.

o Second
Rejected TV Pilot Surfaces on Video-Sharing Sites
Los Angeles - The pilot for a TV show developed for but
rejected by Fox has become the second such program to surface on
video-sharing sites like YouTube in recent weeks, according to The
Hollywood Reporter. Since the pilot for "The Adventures of Big
Handsome Guy and His Little Friend" -- to which Fox owns the
copyrights -- appeared on video-sharing sites, some have complied
with cease-and-desist letters sent by Fox asking that they remove
the video. Keith Richman, CEO of video-sharing site Break.com, told
THR he estimates the "Handsome" pilot has been streamed 250,000
times since it was uploaded on Saturday. Another pilot called
"Nobody's Watching," which was rejected by the WB, was posted on
YouTube last month and generated enough traffic and praise from
online viewers that it was picked up by NBC Universal. Warner Bros.
took another route with its pilot for a series called "Aquaman" for
the CW, posting it for sale on Apple's iTunes Store.

o SanDisk
to Team With Toshiba on New $5 Billion Japanese Plant
Milpitas, Calif. - Japanese electronics giant Toshiba said
on Friday that it will team with Milpitas, Calif.-based SanDisk to
build a new $5.2 billion flash memory plant in Japan. The companies
have jointly operated a Japanese plant for the past year, but said
that rapid growth in the flash memory market from the proliferation
of products such as MP3 music players and mobile phones has
necessitated a larger facility. The new facility, to be known as Fab
4, is expected to be operational by late 2007, with an initial
capacity of 2,500 wafers a month. By late 2008, the companies said
that the plant will be able to produce 67,500 wafers a month.

Mobile Gets $7.5 Million From Telus; Service to Launch in Canada
Vancouver - Amp'd Mobile, a virtual mobile network

telco Telus to sell Amp'd-branded services in Canada. As part of the
agreement, Vancouver-based Telus Ventures has made a $7.5 million
equity investment in the company. Los Angeles-based Amp'd has deals
to distribute mobile entertainment content from over 200 firms,
including MTV and Universal Music Group, to its subscribers. The

Post: U.S., Antigua Tussle at WTO Over 'Net Gambling
Washington - The Washington Post on Friday reported on the
ongoing dispute at the World Trade Organization (WTO) between the
island nation of Antigua and Barbuda and the U.S. over Internet
gambling. After the U.S. cracked down on offshore online casino
operators in 2002, the island nation filed a complaint at the WTO,
claiming U.S. laws prohibiting Internet gambling violated
international trade accords. Antigua won an initial ruling in 2004,
which said the U.S. must either ban all forms of online gambling --
Americans can currently wager on horses online -- or allow offshore
sites to accept wagers from U.S. citizens. However, the U.S. may
simply choose to ignore the ruling, in which case Antigua plans to
ask the WTO for the right to copy and export U.S. DVDs and CDs as a
form of sanction.
