o Grokster File-Sharing Service Shuts Down, Settles Copyright Litigation

Washington - The Associated Press reported on Monday that peer-to-peer file-sharing software provider Grokster has agreed to shut down and settle copyright infringement litigation brought by the movie and music industries. ''There are legal services for downloading music and movies,'' reads a note on the Grokser website. ''This service is not one of them.'' Grokster was a losing defendant in the landmark Supreme Court ruling earlier this year, which found that such providers of file-sharing software could be held liable for copyright infringement committed by users of the software. "This settlement brings to a close an incredibly significant chapter in the story of digital music," said Mitch Bainwol, CEO of the Recording Industry Association of America. "This is a chapter that ends on a high note for the recording industry, the tech community and music fans and consumers everywhere." The settlement between Nevis, West Indies-based Grokster and the record labels and movie studios suing it for copyright infringement calls for the company to cease distributing its software. In September, The Wall Street Journal reported that Grokster was in talks to be acquired by Mashboxx, a legal peer-to-peer file-sharing service being developed by former Grokster president Wayne Rosso.

o N.Y. Times: Microsoft Is Front-Runner For Stake in AOL

Dulles, Va. - The New York Times reported on Monday that Microsoft "has emerged as the front-runner" in talks for a potential stake in America Online. Google and Yahoo are also reportedly interested in a stake -- and the formation of a far-reaching partnership with America Online. However, the article said that America Online parent Time Warner has discovered that reaching such a deal is more difficult than it expected. "Behind the scenes, a number of questions remain that could hold up or even derail a potential transaction," the article said. "One is whether such an alliance would represent yet another new and unproven partnership for Time Warner, a company that has spent much of its energy in recent years trying to simplify its business."

o WSJ: News Corp.'s Murdoch Considering U.S. Broadband Service

Chicago - News Corporation CEO Rupert Murdoch is considering launching a high-speed Internet service in the U.S., The Wall Street Journal reported. "We may be forming a company with partners to build something out here that would give you broadband," Murdoch told The Journal. Murdoch also commented that more consumers will be interested in broadband once high-definition camcorders become widely adopted. The owner of the 20th Century Fox movie studio and Fox TV channels recently launched a new media unit, Fox Interactive, to oversee its online operations. The company's Web units include social networking service MySpace.com, recently acquired by News Corp. for $580 million.

o Hong Kong Man Gets 3-Month Sentence for Sharing Movies on BitTorrent

Hong Kong - In the world's first conviction of its kind, a Hong Kong man has been sentenced to three months in prison for using the BitTorrent peer-to-peer file-sharing network to offer pirated versions of Hollywood films for free download. Chan Nai-Ming, 38, was convicted for offering copies of "Daredevil," "Miss Congeniality" and "Red Planet" on BitTorrent. Nai-Ming is the first person sent to prison for offering movies on BitTorrent.

o Yahoo Pays $500 Million to Acquire Stakes in Overseas Units from Softbank

Sunnyvale, Calif. - Yahoo announced on Monday that it will purchase the remaining stakes in its Yahoo Europe and Yahoo Korea units from Japan's Softbank. Yahoo will pay a total of $500 million to Softbank for the 30% stake in Yahoo UK, Yahoo Germany and Yahoo France, and 33% in Yahoo Korea that Softbank holds, giving Yahoo complete control over the foreign subsidiaries. "This agreement to purchase the remaining shares not already owned by Yahoo! in Europe and Korea demonstrates the confidence we have in our international businesses and our commitment to deliver long-term shareholder value," said Yahoo chairman and CEO Terry Semel. "By buying out Softbank's JV interests, our strategic flexibility to take advantage of international growth opportunities in Korea and Europe will be enhanced, and this new structure should lead to a more efficient, longer-term operating and tax model."

o Report: Most U.K. Consumers Uninterested in Mobile TV

London - According to a new survey conducted by Entertainment Media Research, most mobile phone owners in the U.K. have little desire to watch TV on their handsets, preferring instead to watch it on their PCs, which are quickly becoming extra "TV sets" in the home. More than 70% of the 1,500 people surveyed said they were uninterested in watching TV on their mobiles. About 45% of respondents said they watched TV on their home PCs because it allowed them to choose what they wanted to watch and when they wanted to watch it. PCs also allow consumers to watch TV while doing other things; for instance, roughly half said they surf the Internet and send emails -- while approximately a third use IM -- while watching television on their PCs.
