o Parsons: Sale of Stake in AOL to
Google, Comcast is "Market Rumor"
Mountain View, Calif. - Richard Parsons, the CEO of media
giant Time Warner, said that reports about his company's possible
sale of a stake in its America Online unit are nothing more than a
"market rumor," Reuters reported on Friday. Parsons brushed aside
news reports that had his company selling a minority stake in AOL to
Google and Comcast, and also said there were no plans for an
Internet deal with Microsoft, another hot rumor in recent weeks.
"It's market rumors, and I can't curb market rumors," Parsons said
at a luncheon in Hong Kong on Thursday, declining further comment.
Reuters said that two different sources had confirmed its story
about a possible deal with Comcast and Google worth up to $5
billion. Meanwhile, various outlets reported on Friday that Yahoo is
also considering buying a stake in AOL, although a person close to
the talks told the Associated Press that Yahoo's negotiations with
Time Warner are not as advanced as those being held with AOL's other
purported suitors.

o Aussie
Record Industry Settles File-Sharing Lawsuit With ISP Swiftel
Sydney - The Australian record industry has settled a
copyright infringement lawsuit it brought against Australian ISP
Swiftel, whose employees were alleged to have set up a file-sharing
hub for the BitTorrent peer-to-peer network, ZDNet Australia
reported on Friday. While any financial terms of the settlement were
not disclosed, "the music industry would never have settled the case
unless it was on terms that suited it," Michael Kerin, general
manager of the Aussie recording industry's Music Industry Piracy
Investigations (MIPI) unit, told ZDNet. "Swiftel regrets that it has
not taken enough action to date to stop Internet piracy," said
Swiftel CEO Ryan O'Hare. "We are committed to implementing a new set
of industry leading compliance programs to protect the music
industry." An Australian court also recently ruled against Sharman
Networks, operator of the Kazaa file-sharing network, in a separate
file-sharing copyright lawsuit brought by the recording industry.

o Software
Giants Lobby to Eliminate European "Double Tax" on Digital Music
Brussels - "Private copy levies" imposed on digital song
downloads in Europe are no longer necessary, as digital rights
management security technology now embedded in most downloads sold
negates the need for levies set up to compensate artists and
copyright holders for potential piracy losses, the Business Software
Alliance (BSA) trade group said this week at a gathering of industry
leaders in Brussels. Currently, European consumers pay a royalty for
online music downloads both at the point of purchase, and in the
form of levies imposed when purchasing PCs, and CD and DVD burners
-- which are seen as facilitating the download and burning of free
music from file-sharing networks. "With DRM technology's expanding
role in the market, levies have become a superfluous double tax on
consumers," said Francisco Mingorance, director of public policy,
Europe for the BSA. "Governments have an opportunity to bring real
consumer benefits by applying the European Copyright Directive rules
and phasing out the outdated levies system." The Business Software
Alliance is a software industry trade group whose members include
Microsoft, IBM, Intel, Apple, Cisco, Dell and Adobe.

o Report: Global
MP3 Player Shipments to Rise 370% to 124 Million in 2009
Framingham, Mass. - Spurred by sinking costs and improved
flash memory card capacities, global MP3 player shipments are
projected to grow 370% over the next five years, from 26.4 million
in 2004 to 124 million units shipped in 2009, according to a report
from market research firm IDC. "Demand for portable MP3 players is
booming, as more and more consumers get acquainted with their
stylish form factors and digital audio functionality," said Susan
Kevorkian, program manager for audio consumer markets at IDC.
Driving this growth will be improved capacities and lower costs for
manufacturing flash memory cards; IDC predicts maximum flash
capacity to increase from 1GB in 2004, to 8GB in 2006 and 16GB by
late 2007. Meanwhile, hard drive-based players are expected to grow
at a global compound annual growth rate of 21.5% over the next five
years. Other factors pushing MP3 player adoption will be video
support for portable music players, like Apple's new video iPod, and
the availability of paid online media services.

o Anonymous
Donor Gives Stanford Students a Year of Free Digital Music
Palo Alto, Calif. - An anonymous donor to Stanford
University has provided the funds necessary to offer students a year
of free music from Yahoo's digital music service, CNET News.com
reported. While the fact that Yahoo co-founders Jerry Yang and David
Filo are Stanford alumni caused speculation as to the source of the
anonymous donation, the school itself said it chose Yahoo from among
competing campus download services, including Napster, Ruckus and
Cdigix, for the pilot project. Stanford director of business
development Susan Weinstein told News.com that Yahoo's service
received the best reviews among students. Following the initial year
of free downloads, Yahoo will charge Stanford students $1.75 a month
for a basic subscription, and $4.75 a month for the added ability to
download unlimited songs to portable devices.

o U.K. Record
Industry Pressures Apple, Napster Into Withdrawing P2P Ads
London - Apple and Napster announced that they have
withdrawn advertisements on peer-to-peer (p2p) file-sharing websites
after receiving harsh criticism from the British Phonographic
Industry (BPI), a trade body representing U.K. record companies.
Both companies said the ads were placed by agencies without their
knowledge. BPI Director of Communications Steve Redmond described
Apple and Napster's ads as a "sick joke" and urged other companies
to ensure they do not advertise on such sites, "even unwittingly."
"We deplore the unauthorized distribution of music on Internet sites
which prosper by selling advertising on the back of copyright
theft," he said. "It is hugely ironic that iTunes and Napster, two
companies which have done so much to encourage legal downloading,
have been caught up in these sites."

o Electronic Arts to
Collaborate with Steven Spielberg on Three Video Games
Redwood City, Calif. - Video game publisher Electronic
Arts said on Friday that Academy Award winner Steven Spielberg has
signed a deal to help develop three new original game franchises for
the company. Under the deal, Spielberg will work with EA's
development teams in Los Angeles to led his ideas to the concept,
design, story and artistic visualization of the new games. I have
been playing EA games for years and have watched them master the
interactive format," said Steven Spielberg. "Having watched the game
industry grow from a niche into a major creative force in
entertainment, I have a great deal of respect for EA's understanding
of the interactive format EA will own the intellectual properties
and publish and distribute the titles. Financial terms of the
agreement were not disclosed. EA's Los Angeles studio has developed
such popular game franchises as Medal of Honor, Command & Conquer
and The Lord of the Rings.

o Report: MP3 Format
Inventor Fraunhofer to Close First Spin-Off Fund
Frankfurt - According to a report by Science Business
Publishing Ltd. (SBP), Fraunhofer Gesellschaft, a Germany-based
industrial research organization and inventor of the popular MP3
digital music format, will soon close its first venture capital fund
to finance spin-off companies. Fraunhofer told SBP it was finalizing
terms with a number of undisclosed investors on a $24 million first
tranche of the fund, which is targeted for a final size of $60
million. "We want to bring in know-how from the outside to help
increase our companies' chances of getting further funding and to
create closer contacts with industry," Andreas Apfelbacher told SBP.
Apfelbacher is project manager at Fraunhofer's Munich-based Venture
Group, responsible for spin-offs and investments.

allow users to stream digital music, videos, photos, and standard
and high-definition TV and movies from their Media Center PCs to any
television hooked up to an Xbox 360 game console. Built-in Media

Briefly Noted
o Sony Plugs
New PSP Security Leak With Release of Firmware Upgrade
Tokyo - Sony has once again updated the security software
for its PSP handheld, plugging another hole created by hackers that
allows unauthorized or pirated games to play on the device. With the
firmware version 2.50 upgrade, Sony also added support for the
download and playback of copy-protected video, in an attempt to
entice owners to download the free upgrade. The version 1.0 firmware
that originally shipped on the PSP was cracked soon after the
device's release, prompting Sony to offer a version 2.00 upgrade
that closed that loophole; the recent cracking of version 2.00
prompted the additional upgrade this week.
