o Supreme Court Declines Appeal on
RIAA "John Doe" File-Swapper Suits Washington -- The U.S. Supreme
Court on Tuesday declined to consider an appeal of a ruling that
said the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and others
must file "John Doe" lawsuits in order to compel Internet service
providers to reveal the names of suspected file-swappers. Initially,
the RIAA invoked a provision of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
to subpoena ISPs directly for the names of large batches of alleged
copyright infringers, but Verizon argued and a U.S. appeals court
agreed that the RIAA must first file formal "John Doe" suits against
each suspected file-swapping subscriber. Since the appeals court
ruling in December 2003, the RIAA has sued over 3,500 individuals
using the "John Doe" process.

o Justice Dept.
Task Force Recommends Expansion of U.S. Anti-Piracy Efforts
Los Angeles -- U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft was in Los
Angeles on Tuesday to discuss the findings of a Justice Dept. task
force, which recommends that the U.S. greatly expand its prosecution
of piracy and copyright infringement both at home and abroad, The
Los Angeles Times reported. Citing data that estimates piracy costs
U.S. businesses $250 billion a year, the task force recommended in
its 100-page report that the number of federal prosecutors and
agents assigned to intellectual property and anti-counterfeiting be
increased, and that more be assigned to piracy hotspots like Hong
Kong and Budapest. The task force also said that prosecutors should
target those who circumvent copyright controls on movies, and
recommended that Congress regulate peer-to-peer file-sharing
networks. "A copyright owner should have some express remedy against
such networks and other businesses, to the extent that they depend
upon and intend for their customers to violate the owner's
copyright," the report said. The Times reported that Aschcroft is
expected to endorse and rapidly implement the task force's findings.

o Report:
Number of Legal Music Download Service Users on Decline
Port Washington, N.Y. -- The number of consumers purchasing legal
digital music downloads declined from a high of 1.3 million in April
2004 to around one million during the months of May, June and July,
according to a report from New York-based market research firm NPD
Group. The firm cited the end of free offers, discounts and other
promotions offered by the various services selling digital music.
NPD did not note a corresponding decline in the number of households
using peer-to-peer file-sharing service to download free music,
which totaled 5.1 million in August 2003 and 6.4 million in July
2004. Of the legitimate services, Apple's iTunes accounted for 70 of
sales for the period of Dec. 2003 to July 2004, while Napster's
share was 11% and Musicmatch, RealNetworks and Wal-Mart each sold 6%
of total downloads.

o Microsoft
Releases New XP Media Center PC Software
Redmond, Wash. -- Microsoft on Tuesday announced the release of
its Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, an updated version of its
software for PCs designed to serve as home media servers that

computer to a TV or stereo. PC makers including Dell, Gateway, HP,
Sony and Toshiba will release computers that feature the software,
while Microsoft said a range of consumer electronics firms will

logo, indicating their interoperability with Media Center PCs. The
company also added content to the Digital Media Mall offered throgh
the software from providers including Audible.com, Court TV, F.Y.E.
For Your Entertainment, MLB.TV, Puretracks and XM Satellite Radio.
The release also marked the official launch of MSN Music,
Microsoft's foray into the digital music download store market
currently dominated by Apple's iTunes.

o Report:
File-Swappers on eDonkey Outnumbered Kazaa Users in September
Los Gatos, Calif. -- For the first time, users of the Kazaa
file-sharing application were outnumbered in September by users of
the rival eDonkey service, which can more easily handle larger files
like video, according to a report from Los Gatos, Calif.-based
BayTSP, a peer-to-peer tracking firm. During September, eDonkey
averaged 2.54 million users per day, while Kazaa averaged 2.48
million users. Kazaa's position as the most popular file-sharing
service has waned over the past year, since the Recording Industry
Association of America (RIAA) first began suing its users in a very
public anti-piracy campaign.

o Report: U.K.
Online Advertising Grows 76% in First Half
London -- A new study commissioned by the Interactive Advertising
Bureau (IAB) showed that online advertising in the U.K. for the
first time ever came to more than 3% of the country's total
advertising spending and predicted that online advertising would
overtake radio advertising soon. Online advertising in the first
half accounted for 3.24% of the advertising market, compared to
radio's share of 3.7%. IAB said it was confident online advertising
would overtake radio by February 2007. First-half online advertising
in the U.K. reached just less than 469 million pounds ($838 million)
-- an increase of about 76% compared to the same period last year.
"This is exceptional growth," said Paul Pilkington, director of
Entertainment and Media Practice for PricewaterhouseCoopers, which
conducted the study. "Online is clearly setting new records, growing
its market share faster than any advertising sector."

(London) U.K. news site The Register reports that recently
launched U.K. music download store JetGroove riled many artists and
record labels by purporting to offer unlicensed music for sale from
its online store. The company said the listing of unlicensed tracks
on its service -- which they maintain are unavailable for purchase
or download -- was a somewhat misguided ploy to initiate contact
with labels for licensing negotiations. If a label is unwilling to
license the track(s) in question, JetGroove said, it will remove the
tracks from its search index, as it has done for both Warp Records
and Subversive Records.

(Paris) France's Industry Minister Patrick Devedjian has approved
a decision allowing movie theaters, concert halls and other venues
in the country to install cell phone jammers to block impolite
patrons from making or receiving calls, the Associated Press
reported. The matter was approved in response to "a long-standing
request" from theater owners, and will exempt calls made to
emergency services, in addition to ensuring that calls made outside
such venues aren't affected.

> Help Us Support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
Digital Media Wire has joined forces with a volunteer
committee organized by Rightsline's CEO Russ Reeeder to raise
funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (L&LS). Over
100,000 Americans, adults and children, are diagnosed each
year with leukemia or one of its related cancers (lymphoma,
Hodgkin's and myeloma), and more than 50,000 people in the
U.S. alone die every year from these illnesses. Please help us
support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's efforts. To make
your fully tax deductible donation, please visit:
