o Report: U.S. Online Content
Spending Up 15.7% to $987 Million
New York - U.S. consumers spent $987 million on online
content in the first half of 2005, a 15.7% increase over the same
period last year, according to a report conducted by comScore
Networks on behalf of the Online Publishers Association (OPA).
Growth in online music sales spurred the Entertainment/Lifestyles
category up 44.8% to $264.8 million, overtaking Personals/Dating
($245.2 million) as the most popular online content sector in the
first half of 2005; the Video Games category also saw a 22.5%
increase. Overall, 19.4% of the U.S. online population of 171
million said they paid for online content in the first half of 2005,
an increase of 15.6% over the 16.8 million who said they had in the
first six months of 2004. "Consumers are turning to the Web for
entertainment more and more, and as they do sales of content
continue to rise," said Online Publishers Association president
Michael Zimbalist. "We suspect this trend will continue as new
products such as the Video iPod and other mobile devices play
greater roles in digital content distribution."

o Sirius Q3
Loss Widens, Revenue Triples; 2005 Subscriber Projection Raised
New York - Sirius Satellite Radio, a provider of
subscription radio programming, on Tuesday raised its full-year
subscriber estimate, now expecting to count "over" 3 million
subscribers by the end of 2005. The company added 359,000
subscribers in the third quarter, and now claims a total 2.2 million
subscribers. Sirius reported a loss of $180.5 million for the
quarter, larger than the $169.4 million loss recorded in the same
period a year ago, and said revenue more than tripled for the
quarter, to $66.8 million, from $19.1 million a year ago. Sirius CEO
Mel Karmazin told analysts he expects the company will see a
"blowout" fourth quarter in the lead-up to the debut of shock jock
Howard Stern's new show on Sirius in January. Sirius rival XM
Satellite Radio last week said it ended the quarter with 5 million
subscribers, and still expects to end the year with more than 6
million subscribers.

o SonyBMG
Using Virus Writer Technique to Improve CD Copy-Protection
San Francisco - Major record label SonyBMG has adopted a
technique used by virus writers to hide their tracks, in an effort
to ramp up its CD copy-protection technology, CNET News.com
reported. The "rootkit," used by malware writers to cloak their code
deep within an operating system -- making it more difficult for a
user to delete -- is part of U.K.-based anti-piracy firm
First4Internet's CD copy-protection technology, which
has been employed on SonyBMG CDs released over the past eight
months. Although the technique has elicited some concern from
computer security firms, First4Internet told News.com it has worked
with several security firms to ensure the rootkit is not a risk for
end users trying to play a CD on their computers. The use of a
rootkit in CD copy-protection was first reported by programmer Mark
Russinovich on his blog. "We're still trying to find a line between
fair use and digital rights management, and it is going to take
issues like this, with discussions between lawmakers and industry,
to come up with what's fair and honest," Russinovich told News.com.
"But I think this has gone too far." Russinovich discovered the
rootkit was installed along with copy-protected tracks when he
played a CD in his computer from Van Zant, a band featuring members
of Lynyrd Skynyrd and 38 Special.

o Warner Home
Video Announces Releases on UMD for Sony PSP
Los Angeles - Warner Home Video has announced that it
plans to begin offering titles on the Universal Media Disc (UMD)
format for Sony's PSP handheld video game device. The company plans
to release 8 movies and episodes of Cartoon Network's "Aqua Teen
Hunger Force" animated TV series, pricing new releases at $30 and
library titles at $20. Movies released on UMD will include "The
Dukes of Hazzard," "Batman Begins," "The Matrix" and "House of Wax."
Citing DVD Release Report data, the Hollywood Reporter said Sony
Pictures so far has offered 51 titles on UMD, compared with Disney's
Buena Vista (30 titles), Fox (23), Universal (22) and Paramount
(21); the only major studio still eschewing the format is
DreamWorks.

o Lance
Armstrong Foundation Wins Domains in Cybersquatting Dispute
Geneva - Champion cyclist Lance Armstrong's charitable
foundation, which sells the ubiquitous yellow arm bracelets that
raise money for cancer research, has won a cybersquatting case
against several websites found to be using its name for commercial
profit. The World Intellectual Property Organization's (WIPO) domain
name arbitration center ordered the domain names
livestrongbracelets.net, talk-livestrong.com and mylivestrong.com
turned over to the Lance Armstrong Foundation (www.livestrong.org).
The WIPO ruled that CSA Marketing and Chris Angeles registered the
names in bad faith in late 2004.
