o Apple Introduces Video iPod,
$1.99 Music Videos, TV Shows on iTunes
San Jose, Calif. - As anticipated, Apple on Wednesday
introduced its fifth-generation iPod, which for the first time adds
the ability to play video, in addition to supporting music and
photos. The company also announced that it will begin selling 2,000
music videos from its iTunes Music Store for $1.99 each, along with
episodes of ABC and Disney Channel TV programs like "Lost" and
"Desperate Housewives," and short films from Pixar Animation
Studios. The device will also be able to display video podcasts,
home videos or any other video content uploaded from a computer. The
new video iPod will be sold in 30GB ($299) and 60GB ($399) models
that come in either white or black. "The new iPod is the best music
player ever -- it's 30 percent thinner and has 50 percent more
storage than its predecessor -- yet it sells for the same price and
plays stunning video on its 2.5-inch color screen," said Apple CEO
Steve Jobs. "Because millions of people around the world will buy
this new iPod to play music, it will quickly become the most popular
portable video player in history."

o WSJ:
Google and Comcast in Talks to Acquire Stake in AOL
Dulles, Va. - Google and Comcast are in serious
discussions to acquire a minority stake in America Online, The Wall
Street Journal's online edition reported on Wednesday. According to
people familiar with the situation, the talks focus on AOL's web
portal -- not its dial-up Internet service, which has been steadily
losing subscribers over the past several years. Google and Comcast
are reportedly hoping that tapping into AOL's Internet content will
help drew more visitors to their respective online properties. The
Journal reported that Google first approached Comcast about teaming
up for a bid last week, though it may end up making a bid on its
own. AOL also reportedly has been in negotiations with Microsoft for
several months about potentially combining their Internet
operations.

o EU to
Introduce Single License for Online Music Sales
Brussels - The European Commission announced that it is
planning to offer companies that want to sell music on the Internet
a single license for all 25 EU member states. The Commission said
the absence of EU-wide copyright licenses made it difficult for new
Internet-based music services to develop their full potential, as
online music services in Europe currently require dozens of licenses
in each country for record labels, royalty collection societies and
music publishers. The Commission said the new single license would
boost demand for legal downloads. "These licenses will make it
easier for new European-based online services to take off," said EU
Internal Market and Services Commissioner Charlie McCreevy. "I
believe that this recommendation strikes the right balance between
ease of licensing and maintaining the value of copyright protected
works so that content is not available on the cheap."

o Microsoft,
Yahoo to Make Instant Messenger Services Interoperable
Sunnyvale, Calif. - Yahoo and Microsoft on Wednesday
announced an agreement to make their instant messenger services
interoperable, creating a network of some 275 million combined Yahoo
Messenger and MSN Messenger users worldwide. Beginning in the second
quarter of 2006, users of both services will be able to send each
other instant messages directly, see their friends' online presence,
and add new contacts from either service to their friends' list. The
two services will better compete with AOL's leading AIM instant
messenger service, which claims 56% of the world's instant messenger
market and 51.5 million U.S. users, compared with a combined 44%
worldwide market share for Microsoft and Yahoo.

o Texas Man Gets
4 Years, $1.15M Fine for Sale of Pirated Software, Games
Washington - A 26-year-old Texas man has been sentenced to
46 months in jail, and was ordered to pay $1.15 million in
restitution, in connection with a criminal copyright infringement
charge for selling pirated software and video games on the Internet.
U.S. Attorney Kenneth L. Wainstein and the U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE) said Dashiell Ponce de Leon operated
websites that sold over 200 pirated software and video game titles,
such as Microsoft Office XP, Adobe Photshop, "NBA Live 2003" and
"Harry Potter 2." From Jan. 2002 through May 2003, Ponce de Leon
received $192,000 in payments to a PayPal account in exchange for
pirated software and games valued at $1.15 million. The court noted
the sentence imposed was "warranted based upon the need for adequate
deterrence of this defendant and others who might be tempted to do
as he had done and also the protection of the public." Mr. Ponce de
Leon was also sued in 2001 by the Entertainment Software Association
(ESA), eventually settling over allegations that he sold pirated
games online; the current sentence was rendered in connection with
his second piracy offense. "Sentences that include significant jail
time send a clear message to software pirates that intellectual
property theft is a serious crime and that perpetrators will be
prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," said ESA president
Doug Lowenstein.

o Report: 60% of
Ringtone Revenue Comes From Master Recording Tones
San Francisco - Sixty percent of mobile phone ringtone
revenue is derived from the sale of "realtones," or ringtones that
feature snippets of the actual master recording of a song, according
to a report from market research firm Telephia. Traditional
monophonic and polyphonic ringtones comprised 33% of the market,
while ringback tones accounted for 7% of revenues. "Realtone
downloads are more likely to mimic the success of online digital
music downloads given the inclusion of vocals and improved voice
quality," said Telephia vice president Kanishka Agarwal. "The desire
for personalization drives mobile users to pay a premium for
ringtones with downloads at $1.99 as compared to $0.99 they pay for
the entire track online. Realtones' high revenue share shows
consumers are willing to pay even more at $2.99 for tones that sound
more like a real music track." Telephia' survey of over 30,000
wireless subscribers' bills found that rap and hip-hop ringtones
were the most popular, with 25% of market revenue, followed by pop
(17%), soul/R&B (14%), various voice tones and sound effects (11%)
and alternative/punk (9%). The firm said Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback
Girl," "Cater 2 U" by Destiny's Child and "We Belong Together" by
Mariah Carey were three of the leading realtones in July 2005; "Hollaback
Girl" also recently became the first digital song download to sell
one million copies.

o BBC Proposes License
Fee Hike to Fund U.K. Digital TV Transition
London -- Aiming to generate more funds for the upcoming
transition to digital TV broadcasting in the U.K., the BBC has
proposed a 20% increase in the license fee it charges all U.K.
residents for TV service. The BBC recommended increasing the fee
from the current $221 (£126.50) to $263 (£150.50) by the year 2013.
In addition to helping with the digital switchover (including a
multimillion-dollar advertising campaign), the funds will be used
for new programs and new digital services, the BBC said. A number of
U.K. members of Parliament and newspapers have criticized the
proposal, with the Times of London characterizing the BBC as a
"greedy auntie" and the London Telegraph questioning "the cheek of
it".

o Konami's "Dance

Redwood City, Calif. - Japanese video game developer
Konami's U.S. unit announced on Wednesday that it has partnered with
the 24 Hour Fitness chain of fitness clubs, which will add the
company's "Dance Dance Revolution" games to its Kids' Clubs

units worldwide since its original release in 1998. It has also been
introduced into the physical fitness curriculum in numerous U.S.
school districts. "By placing DDR in 24 Hour Fitness locations we
strive to help kids and adults achieve their fitness goals in an
unintimidating and fun way," said Clara Gilbert, director of
business partnerships at Konami Digital Entertainment America. As
part of the agreement, Konami will include 30-day free memberships

company's settlement of a $1 billion antitrust lawsuit against
Microsoft and new partnership with its former rival on digital music
and video games. "We haven't done something that guarantees we'll be
partners 10 years from now," said Glaser. "I'm sort of a
crawl-walk-run guy, and we went from a relationship where we were
somewhere between walking and running in opposite directions, to
where we're walking -- and maybe in some cases even walking briskly
-- together in the same direction." On their digital music
collaboration, which still puts Real and Microsoft behind market
leader Apple, Glaser remarked, "I think it's fair to say that the
iPod is still the best product. I think we and Microsoft have an
incentive to work with the hardware community to create better
solutions than have been created thus far, and I think we'll do it,
but I think that is something that plays out over time."
