handheld devices that use Windows Mobile.
Owners of Portable Media Centers, smart phones and pocket computers
will be able to download daily programs and other video content from
MSNBC.com, Food Network, Fox Sports, IFilm and other content

announced plans for the
MSN Video Downloads service at the Consumer
Electronics Show in January. Microsoft said about 20 content partners,
including CinemaNow, MTV, Napster and TiVo, have agreed to make video
formatted for devices using Windows Mobile since the launch of
Portable Media Center last
year.

Sony
launched a noninfringing music downloading service,
entering a growing market still dominated by Apple's iTunes and
including a revised Napster .
Connect is based on a downloadable client ,
offers more than five hundred thousand songs, and offers
now-traditional pricing: ninety-nine cents per song, with a
subscription option. Additionally, Connect is appealing to
indepedent labels for more content. As with iTunes, a digital
rights management ( DRM
) application,
MagicGate DRM , restricts sharing of downloaded music files.
Connect's file format, ATRAC 3 , is
not compatible with the popular iPod portable music player.
The desktop client
is available for Windows machines only.

Xeni Jardin:
MSN Music launched today.
From a CBS Marketwatch report:
Microsoft on Wednesday unveiled details of a new service for
downloading digital music, placing it squarely in competition with
Apple's rival iTunes music service. Redmond, Wash.-based Microsoft
will launch a preview version of its new MSN Music service tomorrow
that will allow users to legally download songs mostly for 99 cents
each. The service will also make entire albums available, the majority
of which will cost $9.99, the company said. Microsoft's push into the
arena for downloadable music trails Apple's hugely successful iPod
digital music player and its own iTunes music service. Apple also
charges 99 cents for each song downloaded through iTunes.

MSN Video Download for PMC and Pocket PC
Launches
03/30/2005 07:31 AM
One of my
biggest criticisms of Microsoft's Portable Media Center platform has
been that there's really nothing to watch. You could download a few
B-list movies from CinemaNow and Major League Baseball games or copy
stuff from your Windows Media Center PC, but if you wanted to put
anything else on the device, you had to transcode your video to
Windows Media Video format (a hassle I will, perhaps unfairly, put up
with in the PSP, but not in a device with the primary purpose of
playing back video).
Thankfully, Microsoft has finally launched MSN Video Downloads, the
long-promised service to provide daily-updated content for easy
download and syncing to your Portable Media Center. I haven't used it,
but glancing over the content list looks somewhat
promising—enough so that the $20-a-year subscription fee is
probably worth it, if you've already dropped $400 on a PMC (and the
content works on Pocket PCs, as well).
