o Penn. Judge Says File-Swappers
Targeted by RIAA Must Be Advised of Rights Philadelphia -- A
federal court in Pennsylvania has ruled that Internet service
providers in the state who are served "John Doe" lawsuits by the
Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), asking for the
identities of subscribers accused of copyright infringement, must
first provide these subscribers detailed notices on the subpoenas,
including information on their rights and how they can contest them.
U.S. District Judge Cynthia Rufe ruled on Oct. 12 that ISPs must
provide information, including a list of attorneys, to their
subscribers targeted by the RIAA. "Receiving notice from your ISP
that you are being sued by the record companies is a terrifying
experience for the grandmas, students, and working mothers who have
been caught up in the RIAA's lawsuit crusade," said Electronic
Frontier Foundation legal director Cindy Cohn. "By requiring ISPs to
include basic information such as the right to challenge lawsuits
and where to go for help, the court took a big step toward helping
people understand their options." Groups including the Electronic
Frontier Foundation, Public Citizen and the ACLU filed briefs in the
case supporting the judge's decision. While the ruling only applies
to ISPs in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Public Citizen
attorney Paul Levy noted, "We can only hope that judges throughout
the country will follow this example."

o RIAA Sues
Another 750 Alleged Song-Swappers for Copyright Infringement
Washington -- The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)
announced on Friday that it has sued another 750 alleged music
file-swappers for copyright infringement, including 25 users from 13
different universities. In addition to the 750 "John Doe" lawsuits
filed to obtain file-swappers' identities from their Internet
service providers, the RIAA said it filed 213 separate lawsuits
against defendants in 34 states and the District of Columbia
identified through previous "John Doe" suits who declined or ignored
an RIAA settlement offer. The RIAA has now sued a total of over
6,100 individual file-swappers for copyright infringement. The
students targeted by the RIAA on Friday include some studying at
Iowa State University, Ohio State University, Grinnell College and
Indiana State University. "In order for legitimate services to
continue their growth, we cannot ignore those who take and
distribute music illegally," said RIAA president Cary Sherman.
"There must be consequences to breaking the law or illegal
downloading will cripple the music community's ability to support
itself now or invest in the future." The RIAA also announced this
week that CD shipments increased 10.2% in the first half of 2004.

o L.A. Times:
Sony BMG, Grokster Partner on Mashboxx Song Download Service
Los Angeles -- The Los Angeles Times reported on Friday that, in
a major departure from the industry's legal campaign against
peer-to-peer file-sharing technology, major record label Sony BMG is
cooperating with Grokster -- a file-sharing company it also sued for
copyright infringement -- on a new venture called Mashboxx that will
offer its songs as paid downloads. Mashboxx is being headed by
former Grokster president Wayne Rosso, who resigned last year to
head Spanish P2P firm Blubster. While it's unclear if Mashboxx will
be a true peer-to-peer service, people familiar with the venture
told The Times that it would likely only offers users who search for
a Sony BMG track the ability to download an authorized version of
the song, such as a free low-quality version that included an offer
to buy the CD-quality version. The service will also likely use
technology developed by Snocap, a start-up founded by Napster
founder Shawn Fanning. The Times reported that impetus for the
Mashboxx project came from Sony BMG CEO Andrew Lack, who has urged
other labels to support the venture.

o Report:
Cell Phone Games to Generate $1 Billion This Year
London -- Mobile game downloads will generate over $1 billion
worldwide this year, a figure that will grow to $6.4 billion by
2010, according to a report from U.K.-based market research firm
Screen Digest. Japan and Korea are currently responsible for nearly
80% of the market, where game download rates per handset are
dramatically higher and average revenues per user were four times
higher last year than in the U.S. and Western Europe. The report
found 49 different game services offered in Europe, compared to just
nine in the U.S., although U.S. cell phone users have on average
more than twice the number of games available to them (203 games)
than Europeans. The firm said a move towards flat-rate pricing for
games, which is prevalent in Japan, would help fuel growth for the
industry elsewhere, where customers are often charged for each game
download as well as for the data airtime required to download the
game. "It's barely two years since the first games download services
were established in Europe, but now availability is almost
ubiquitous and some operators offer more than 200 titles to their
subscribers," said Screen Digest analyst Tim Green. "As the networks
make their payment models more flexible and games developers apply
more creativity to their designs, I'm sure we will see significant
growth in the future."

o N.Y.
Times: MarketWatch Could be Sold for Up to $400 Million
San Francisco -- The New York Times reports that MarketWatch, a
San Francisco-based provider of online business news, financial
information and analytical tools, could be sold for as much as $400
million. According to the report, the company, which operates the
popular CBS MarketWatch.com site, has been actively seeking bids,
though company officials declined to comment. Possible suitors may
include The New York Times, the CBS unit of Viacom and Dow Jones &
Co, publisher of The Wall Street Journal.

o Report:
World Market for Wireless Adult Content to Hit $1 Billion in 2008
Boston -- The market for wireless adult entertainment content is
expected to reach $90 million in the U.S. and $1 billion globally by
2008, according to a report this week from Boston-based market
research firm Yankee Group. The firm said provider PhoneBox
Entertainment receives more than 75 million hits per week at its
PhoneErotica.com site. That company says less than 5% of users will
enter credit cards to access premium content, while over 30% will
allow direct billing to their wireless accounts. The report notes
that most European wireless adult content consumers locate content
by sending a premium SMS message, rather than browsing to a WAP
site, as the network operator thus distances itself from being the
actual provider of the content, acting instead as the delivery
mechanism. Yankee Group said that if U.S. operators can develop a
mechanism for protecting minors like the one used by Vodafone UK,
they can safely profit from the opportunity.

o U.K. Online
Casino Sportingbet to Acquire Paradise Poker for $298 Million
London -- Sportingbet, a U.K.-based online casino, announced this
week that it has agreed to acquire Paradise Poker, a U.K.-based
Internet poker website, for $298 million. The acquisition stands to
make Sportingbet the largest online betting firm in the world. "This
more than doubles us in size," said Sportingbet CEO Nigel Payne. "If
we believed we were number one before, then we certainly are today."
Sportingbet said that it currently has more than 1.2 million
customers, a 30% increase compared to July last year. Sports bets
increased by 36% over the same period, the company said. Paradise
Poker, which boasts more than 97,000 active players, is currently
the third-largest poker website in the world.

CHUM Limited, a Canadian radio and television broadcaster, announced
on Friday that it has signed an agreement with London-based
RadioScape to develop a digital radio receiver for CHUM's planned
national multi-channel terrestrial subscription radio service. CHUM
has applied for a broadcasting license for its proposed CHUM
Subscription Radio Canada (CSRC), which if accepted by regulators
would initially offer 50 channels for $9.95 per month, eventually
growing to 100 channels. Under the terms of the agreement, CHUM and
RadioScape will work together to specify the digital radio receiver
and broadcast infrastructure solutions needed, with RadioScape then
providing broadcasting and receiving technology and equipment for
the service.

(Washington) The Washington Post this week reported on new radio
audience measurement technology being installed in the D.C. area
that logs which FM radio station passing cars are tuned into by
picking up faint electronic signals emitted from their antennas.
Developed by Phoenix-based MobilTrak, the utility pole-mounted
devices are designed to give advertisers an idea of which stations
consumers are listening to in certain geographic areas, such as
those nearby their businesses. "It's about giving marketers
real-time data about what's happening in certain areas at certain
times so they don't waste their advertising dollars," MobilTrak
managing partner C. David Boice told The Post.
