Shocker: People Realize That Mobile
Carriers Won't Make Money From Music
04/15/2005 04:49 AMFor quite some time, a bunch of folks have been pointing out that the
mobile phone operators are being somewhat idiotic in their belief that
they
they
can be music and media moguls. They got this idea in their head
once ringtones started to take off, and rather than thinking they
might just be a fad, both the music industry and the mobile operators
start drooling over how much money they think they're going to make --
when neither of them seem to actually understand the other's business
very much. While the theme of the last few months in the mobile world
seemed to be unquestioned acceptance that "content is king" it appears
the backlash is starting, as even the folks at Business Week are
realizing
the mobile operators will
never make much money by selling music directly. The article
points out what everyone always seems to forget. Even for Apple, the
clear leader in selling music online,
selli
ng music is a loss leader. In other words, the carriers would do
better to team up with someone (such as Apple) to handle selling
music, and they should just be happy with the increased usage. Of
course, instead of that, the operators are complaining that
iTune
s on phones will take revenue away from them. And, of course,
this doesn't even touch on issues like network over-capacity and the
fact that
people don't
want different music services on their phones and on their
computers. Between the recording industry and the mobile operators,
about the only thing you can bet on is that both industries' short
term greed, and total lack of understanding of what users want, is
likely to screw up any offerings for quite a few years.

Shocker: People Don't Think They Should
Be Sued For Downloading
06/29/2004 09:49 PMA new study shows that completely unsurprising results that
most people don't think the RIAA should be suing people for
downloading. While the majority of those over 55 had no problem
with the lawsuits, under that age barrier they felt the RIAA was going
too far. Of course, the RIAA lawsuits
are not about
downloading. Every one of the lawsuits so far have been about
offering songs (i.e., potentially uploading songs) rather than
the actual downloading of songs. Still, it certainly suggests that
people are getting fed up with the RIAA's heavy handed tactics.

Shocker: More People Prefer Online Car
Sales To Dealing With Dealers
04/11/2005 03:31 PMCan you possibly imagine that people wouldn't like going in to car
dealers and buying cars from a profession that seems to be defined by
its own sleaze? Indeed, it appears that the less sleaze-inducing
internet route for buying cars
is picking up
steam -- with plenty of car purchases originating online. Also,
person-to-person car sales have been increasing as the internet has
aided that process, and cut out the need for dealers to broker those
types of sales. Meanwhile, fewer people seem to be going to the old
newspaper classified section to find out about car deals, as it just
doesn't seem efficient any more. The car
sellers are
looking elsewhere and car buyers prefer going online and avoiding
dealers as much as possible as well.

More Musicians Realize Free Can Be
Profitable
05/21/2004 04:14 AMHere's yet another article in a mainstream news source (USA Today)
noting that many musicians realize that
file sharing has helped them build a fan base who
come out to concerts and who feel much more involved with the band.
The article includes some quotes from RIAA chief Mitch Bainwol stating
the standard line about how the artists can do what they want, but
where will that leave the folks at the record labels? Of course, he's
basically taking the position that the recording industry is owed
their rightful profit, rather than realizing that business models and
markets change - and if his constituents can't keep up and come up
with new business models, they don't deserve to be in business. The
market for horse and buggies dried up when automobiles came about -
and no one today would say that we need to artificially prop up the
horse and buggy market, like he wants to make sure the recording
industry is artificially propped up. If he was really there to help
the industry, he'd be telling them that it was time to adjust already
and not try to hold back what's inevitable in the industry. Instead,
he tries to claim that the record labels are like VCs - a comparison
that has been made many times over the years - but which is wrong. At
least VCs have (mostly) learned to adjust to market changes over time.
The recording industry execs seem to think that markets never change
at all.
Luxury Brands Don't Realize Their

Luxury Brands Don't Realize Their
Customers Are Online
07/19/2004 02:51 PMWith all the focus these days on paid search marketing, various luxury
brands are now
being
accused of not understanding the space at all. A study that
looked at 23 luxury brands found that searches on those brands often
pointed users to sites selling discount products. While some luxury
brands have been "concerned" about ownership of their brand name,
they've mostly just threatened to sue those using their trademarked
names (which, as we've discussed may not
make
much sense) or have been too afraid of channel conflict to bother
with any real online advertising strategy. The report concludes that
it's time these luxury brands realize that their affluent customers
are online and that it's time to take control of their brand through
better search engine marketing... which might just make you wonder if
it was sponsored by the search engine marketing folks (or even a
search engine itself).

Banks Start To Realize Identity Theft Is

Banks Start To Realize Identity Theft Is
Expensive
07/15/2004 11:51 AMOne of the big complaints by victims of identity theft is that the
various banks and law enforcement agencies don't really care that
much, leaving the individual to have to pick up the pieces themselves.
The banks and credit card companies, in particular, have shown a
remarkable lack of interest in solving the whole identity fraud issue
(though, they'll charge you extra for identity fraud alerts!).
However, they're
beginning to realize that identity
theft is expensive to them too, and claim they're really trying to
do something about it this time. Still, things like
disposa
ble credit card numbers aren't very well promoted, and no one
seems to be doing much about reforming how credit agencies work in the
first place. Reforming that process would be a huge step in stopping
identity theft.

Time For CEOs To Realize How Screwed Up
The Patent System Is
09/27/2004 03:20 AMWe wrote about the book
Innovation and Its Discontents : How Our Broken Patent System is
Endangering Innovation and Progress, and What to Do About It
earlier this year noting that
it sounded
quite good, as it not only showed what was wrong, but also
suggested a solution. The book still isn't out, but the New York
Times has some more information about it, including a discussion on
how the patent
system got to be so bad, as well as what the book's authors think
it will take to change. They say that most companies don't realize
how much damage the patent system is doing, and that a very small
group of lawyers in the D.C. patent bar have the incentive to keep the
patent system screwed up. Thus, the only real change will come when
CEOs of companies realize just how the patent system is harming their
prospects by turning the whole process into
an arms
race rather than a system for encouraging innovation. Hopefully,
this book will help get the point across.

McDonald's Starting To Realize The
Promotional Power Of Music Files
McDonald's Starting To Realize The
Promotional Power Of Music Files
11/06/2003 06:12 PMFor years now, a bunch of people have been saying that music is a
promotional item, and should be used to sell something else. Each time
the topic came up, some recording industry defender would come along
and say that was ridiculous, and that if people value music they
should pay for it - which was missing the point. It has nothing to do
with value, but plenty to do with competitive pressures. It appears
that some folks at McDonald's are catching on. They've worked out a
deal to
give away 1
billion iTunes songs as a promotion. It's certainly not at the
level it will eventually get to, but this is actually a step in the
right direction. The trick will be when someone realizes that giving
away music shouldn't be a 1-time promotion, but a long term deal.
Also, it would help if it didn't involve music that was tied down with
annoying copy protection. In related news, it looks like more and
more people are getting angry about
all
the different incompatible formats and restrictions on
downloadable music. Sooner or later someone is going to realize the
full picture: music, by itself, is a promotional item and as such, the
more you make it so that customers can do what they want with it - the
more they'll want it, and the
better a promotional item it will
be.

Are People Using Non-Browser Apps To
Access The Internet?
12/30/2003 04:06 PMNielsen/NetRatings is reporting that
more and
more people are accessing the internet via non-browser
applications. 76% of users connect via non-browser applications,
with the popular ones being instant messaging and the various media
players. I'm not sure why this is a big deal. Lots of people use
non-browser applications to reach the internet. This isn't a question
of replacing the browser, but other, non-browsing applications using
the internet as well, for other, (you guessed it) non-browsing
purposes. It really wasn't that long ago that
all internet
applications were non-browser applications. I'm actually surprised
that email applications aren't included at the top of this list. Are
that many people really using web-based email applications these days?
In the meantime, Jeremy Wagstaff is pointing out that
many of these applications are sneakily installed upon startup, so
that many users have them connecting to the internet when they don't
even know about it, making this study even less meaningful.

12/06/2003 10:53 AM For any society, in any age, the study of politics

affairs; the second is Channel 4's

Macintosh computers maintain a stronghold in video editing, thanks to
their art department-friendliness, a long legacy of use in Avid and
competitors' video equipment and Apple's own professional software,
Final Cut Pro. While Apple has carved out a video production niche,
Microsoft has been trying to control video distribution through its
Windows Media Video 9, which is currently popular for Web video, but
also has the potential to be used for portable entertainment, DVDs,
and even cable-TV distribution. Microsoft recently donated WMV9's
codec, called VC-1, to the Society of Motion Picture and Television
Engineers (SMPTE), hoping to also make it a TV industry standard.

01/08/2004 07:36 PMToday at the 2004 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES),
Microsoft Corp. announced Windows® Media Connect, technology designed
to enable hardware manufacturers to easily develop devices such as
Digital Media Receivers (DMRs), which have rich functionality for
playing digital media files stored on personal computers over home
networks. A broad range of industry leaders have announced their
support of this upcoming technology, including leading PC OEMs and
consumer electronics device manufacturers including Arcadyan
Technology Corp., Creative Labs, Dell Inc., Mediabolic Inc., PRISMIQ
Inc., Rockford Corp., Roku, Simple Devices Inc. and Toshiba. Leading
content service providers such as LAUNCH Music on Yahoo!, MusicNow
(formerly FullAudio), and Napster also endorsed Windows Media Connect
for its ability to extend the reach of their content and services to a
new range of consumer devices. Available in 2004, Windows Media
Connect technology will overcome two critical hurdles faced by
networked media devices today: compatibility between proprietary
devices and ease of access to content stored on the PC.
