Apple steals iTunes customers' paid-for
rights to stream
Apple steals iTunes customers' paid-for
rights to stream
03/17/2005 03:56 AMCory Doctorow:
Apple's iTunes DRM has a lot to hate, but first and foremost is that
Apple can cheat you by taking away rights that you had when you bought
your music. If you bought music from Apple a month ago, you got the
right to stream it to anyone on your local network. If you had the hot
track that your whole dorm coveted, they could all stream the music
from your computer to theirs and give a listen.
But once you install the new iTunes 4.7.1 "update" (more accurate to
call it a "downgrade") you lose that ability. Without telling anyone,
Apple has stolen some of the rights you paid for when you bought your
iTunes music, by adding limits to the number of people you can stream
your music to in a 24 hour period. Imagine if your boom-box refused to
switch itself on if too many people were in the room -- the 21st
Century equivalent of gathering in one room to listen to music is
gathering on one network to do so, and Apple has just appointed itself
the absolute, tyrannical ruler of the size of the social group that
you're allowed to stream iTunes music to.
Never mind that the iTunes itself lacks any means of controlling
who you stream to only gives you coarse-grained password tools to
control who can connect to your streams -- unless you wall off your
collection with a password, anyone on your LAN can stream and Apple
doesn't give you the tools to limit or even see who's streaming, so
the stranger three rows over in class might be using up the one
session you're saving for your neighbor when you get back to the dorm.
Apple has done this downgrading several times before, taking away
rights you paid for, like the right to burn a playlist 10 times (down
to seven), the right to stream over the Internet (now jut the right to
stream over the LAN) -- and Apple's also used its ability to remotely
disable features on your iPod and in iTunes to shut out competitors'
products, like the Real music player and iPod Download, both of which
offered legal functionality to Apple's customers.
Apple has moved to restrict the streaming capability. In the good old
days it used to support five simultaneous listeners, but now allows
only allows five listeners a day.

HOWTO Stream from iTunes to your mobile

HOWTO Stream from iTunes to your mobile
phone (without Apple's permission)
06/17/2005 03:34 PMCory Doctorow:
DittyBot is a script for OS X that uses a clever combination of mobile
email and VoIP to stream music from your iTunes collection to your
cellphone. Using your phone, email the title/artist info for a song in
your iTunes library to DittyBot, which is running on your Mac, pulling
down mail every minute. DittyBot receives the request, calls you with
Skype, and plays the song back to you over voice-over-IP using iTunes.
Wow.
You send a text message from your mobile phone to your POP email
account. Your text message should contain the keywords of a song title
(and possibly an artist name) that you want to hear. DittyBot finds
that email (he checks Mail every 45 seconds) and copies the song name
into a text file. The song name is then copied into iTunes and a
playlist is created from your search. Next, DittyBot loads Skype (the
internet telephony app) and begins calling your mobile phone. Your
mobile phone rings and when you pick it up, you should hear your song
start playing in all its compressed glory. DittyBot will play your
selection to you over your phone until you hang up. Mind you, this all
should happen within 1 minute of sending your song request (depending
on the speed of your POP server). Sometimes it's even quicker!

God damn it,
Apple. So I don't buy a lot of albums from iTunes Music Store, because
I'm cheap and Denton had to get another set of gold fronts, but I've
got a couple here and there, which I have unlocked with Playfair/Hymn. Now part of the
whole shtick with Hymn is that even though it strips the iTunes DRM,
it leaves your email address and other unique purchasing information
in the protected AAC file, ostensibly to symbolically signify that
Hymn users aren't trying to spread their fairly-purchased music files
to the whole world, but instead to whatever devices they want. I
unlocked mine so that I could be sure to play them after I had
reformatted my machine. I'm pretty sure Apple has a method of
reauthorizing your computer, but that's a hassle. But now the new
version of iTunes has recognized that the DRM-stripped M4P files were
purchased from iTMS and is telling me my (reformatted, reinstalled)
machine isn't authorized to play them. So gee, thanks for that,
Apple.
Get the fix after the jump.

04/28/2004 03:59 PMI don't think this is all that surprising, but for all the hype around
Apple's deal with Pepsi to give away "free" iTunes songs with a
winning Pepsi cap,
only about 5% of
the winning caps have been redeemed. I'd imagine that most people
don't even notice the caps, while a good portion of those who do
notice it don't care, don't use iTunes or don't want to bother. From
both Apple and Pepsi's standpoint it seems like a wonderful giveaway.
They get to promote huge numbers of giveaways - but only have to pay
for a few.
