o Electronic Arts Pays $15.6 Million to Settle Overtime Pay Class Action

Redwood City, Calif.-- Video game developer and publisher Electronic Arts announced on Thursday that it has paid $15.6 million to settle a class action lawsuit brought by current and former employees, who argued the company did not provide adequate overtime pay. Under the settlement, some 200 EA production workers who were not previously eligible will be reclassified as eligible for overtime pay, but will no longer receive stock options, EA spokeswoman Trudy Miller told the Associated Press. The lawsuit was originally filed in July 2004, following the publication of a widely-publicized online journal deriding the company for its work environment and compensation policies. A separate class action lawsuit, brought by a group of engineers working for Electronic Arts, is still pending.

o AOL to Acquire Blogging Company Weblogs Inc.

Dulles, Va. - In a deal that will add 85 new topical websites to its fold, America Online said on Thursday that it has agreed to acquire blogging company Weblogs Inc., which has offices in Santa Monica, Calif. and New York City, for an undisclosed sum. The deal is AOL's third acquisition this year, following the acquisitions of Wildseed and Xdrive in August. Two-year-old Weblogs Inc. operates a media network of 85 blogging sites covering a range of subject matters. The company features more than 100 independent, freelance bloggers producing over 1,000 blog postings weekly. The company claims to have over 30 million monthly web page views and 25 million monthly RSS page views. AOL plans to integrate the content throughout its core service, as well as its network of properties, such as Moviefone, AOL Music and Netscape. Under the deal, Weblogs Inc. will become a stand-alone subsidiary of AOL, operating with full editorial control and independence.

o Aussie High Court Rules PlayStation "Mod Chips" Legal

Sydney - Australia's highest court has ruled that "mod chips" for Sony's PlayStation 2 video game console, which can alter the device so that it plays imported or pirated games, are legal, Australian IT reported. The unanimous ruling from the High Court follows an appeal won by Sony before the full bench of the Federal Court. The High Court invalidated Sony's claim that its regional coding on the PlayStation 2 constitutes copyright protection, which was then being circumvented by the mod chips; the court reasoned that since no unauthorized copy of the game is created using the mod chips, no copyright infringement had occurred. The court ruling will create some confusion in Australia, where the government recently agreed to amend copyright laws in the country to outlaw the underlying technology behind mod chips. PlayStation 2 mod chips are illegal in the U.S. under the anti-circumvention clause of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and were ruled illegal in the U.K. in July 2004, where Sony has since successfully litigated against several mod chip suppliers.

o EU Names Neil Barrett as Trustee to Monitor Microsoft

Brussels - The European Commission announced that it has appointed Neil Barrett, a computer scientist at Cranfield University in the U.K., as the trustee who will ensure that Microsoft complies with a recent antitrust ruling against the U.S.-based software giant. In a landmark decision last year, the Commission ordered Microsoft to sell a version of its Windows operating system in Europe without Microsoft Media Player. Barrett's job will be to make sure that new versions of Windows sans Media Player do not impose "any commercial, technological or contractual terms" that would make it less attractive than Windows with Media Player. EU Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes said Barrett would report directly to her on Microsoft's progress -- or lack thereof. In the latter case, Microsoft could be fined as much as 5% of global sales for every day it does not comply.

o Report: 63% of U.S. Households Will Have HDTV Sets by 2010

New York - High-definition television will make great strides over the next five years, with market penetration growing from 21% at the end of 2004 to 2010, when 70% of all televisions sold will be HDTV sets, and 63% of U.S. households will own an HDTV set, according to a report from JupiterResearch. "After a slow start, HDTV is beginning to generate real consumer appeal. We attribute this to the increase availability of HD content as well as the growing number of HD sets available at retail," said JupiterResearch associate analyst Joni Blecher. The report also forecasts that LCD flat screen and projection display sets will make up the majority of U.S. sales by 2010. "With prices dropping, greater prominence in the retail channel and the impact of the FCC's digital tuner mandate on manufacturers, we are forecasting a steady increase in HDTV unit sales over the next five years," said JupiterResearch senior vice president David Schatsky.

o Flash Creator, About.com Founder Launch Brightcove Internet TV Service

Cambridge, Mass. - A group of technology veterans including Macromedia Flash creator Jeremy Allaire, About.com founder Scott Kurnit, and Lycos general counsel Andrew Feinberg have announced the launch of Brightcove, an Internet TV service designed to let video creators post their content online and set up means of generating compensation and syndication. Massachusetts-based Brightcove will not charge producers for uploading their content, but will receive a share of the advertising and other fees generated by the videos; producers may also opt for ad-free video, in which case they will be charged according to the bandwidth used for traffic they generate. "We are committed to transforming the distribution of video and TV programming through the Internet, and we have assembled a team that has the skills and experience to make that vision a reality," said Brightcove founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire.

o Report: European DVB-H Mobile TV Revenue to Hit $8.3 Billion in 2011

London - The digital video broadcasting (DVB-H) standard for delivering mobile TV to cell phones will gain momentum in Europe by 2008, and grow to reach $8.3 billion in annual revenues by 2011, according to a report from market research firm Frost & Sullivan. Ambiguities regarding spectrum allocation are expected to be worked out by manufacturers, who are forecasted to begin DVB-H mobile TV trials by 2008. While initial pricing may be kept lower to attract new customers, by 2010 European service providers are expected to be offering mobile TV for between $8.50 and $15 per month. "By 2011, video services like downloading would be used as a sales channel for specific video content while DVB-H takes over as the primary channel for mobile video services," said Frost & Sullivan analyst Pranab Mookken.
