05/03/2004 10:46 AMAP - The European Union launched a probe Monday into 16 national
organizations that collect royalties for composers and songwriters,
charging that their system for licensing music is hampering the
rollout of Internet downloading services across Europe.

Music licensing and American Idol
Music licensing and American Idol
05/26/2004 03:25 PMThe New York Times published an article about
how the music industry influences song choice on American Idol
today. I've long suspected that contestant song choice was limited to
what the show could afford to pay in licensing costs ahead of time,
since the choices of songs to cover seem limited. A producer of the
show is quoted heavily stating that many songs are off-limits due to
audience preferences and style, but does let slip that any songs by
Michael Jackson, The Beatles, and Shania Twain are completely
off-limits to the show. That's disappointing, since MJ and the Beatles
are cultural icons, both selling one of the top ten music albums of
all time.
Historically, there's always been some legal leeway to allow for
cover songs, though as
this musician found out, the process can be a lengthy one to get
the rights to everything you want to record.

MP3.com Execs To Continue Licensing
Music
01/06/2004 02:34 PMWhile Vivendi Universal
sold
off the MP3.com domain name to CNET, they didn't sell much else of
the business. Now, some former MP3.com execs have picked up some of
the other MP3.com assets to continue an offering that was started in
2002 to
license
music online for use in places like offices and retail
environments. It lets subscribers put in their own advertisements
or announcements as well. So, the next time you're walking through
the department store listening to the muzak that's playing, realize it
may be coming from MP3s. Of course, now that MP3.com destroyed their
database of songs, I wonder what music they're licensing out. The
article claims the company also bought the licenses to a number of
songs, but it sounds like they'll have to create a brand new database
to use them. They also say they're going to sign deals with major
labels to offer their music as well.

Bill Joy Still Worried
Bill Joy Still Worried
11/19/2003 02:16 PMWired Magazine's latest interview is with everyone's favorite worrier,
Bill Joy, talking about
why
he's both optimistic and pessimistic about the future. He
remains, as you might expect, quite opinionated, believing that there
are plenty of near term opportunities for technology as computers get
more powerful. However, he's still worrying about how we're all going
to blow ourselves up if we don't come up with some sort of Hippocratic
Oath for technologists.

06/25/2004 08:37 AMThe government's antitrust trial against Oracle's $7.7 billion
takeover bid for PeopleSoft motored on Thursday, but outside the
courthouse there was still a buzz about previously confidential
documents released at the trial late Wednesday. The documents
illuminated the facts that both Microsoft and IBM fear the competitive
landscape will tilt against them if Oracle takes over PeopleSoft. That
unwelcome prospect prompted Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates to begin
considering some extraordinary defensive measures the day after Oracle
launched its June 2003 bid, according to trial evidence.

Slightly worried now
Slightly worried now
08/31/2004 11:52 AMOK... So I managed today to fix all the things that cropped up
today, and I have a huge backlog of things that occurred over
the weekend, or during my trip to Oulu, or during my vacation. I got
to the point where I was receiving more email than I could handle -
the inbox was growing faster than I was emptying it - and I was doing
nothing but reading email. I even had to tell people off because I
was so busy doing things that I apparently should've done during my
vacation (yeah, right) - and I try and never do that.
Not good. I see exhaustion ahead, approaching rapidly. I'm feeling
good and energetic after the holidays, but at this rate I'll be dead
by November.
(There's a big downside to working within the office hours: people see
you and wander over to talk to you about pressing matters. And your
work flow is interrupted. If you work outside the office hours, or
from home - not that many interruptions. Perhaps I should just stay
home for a couple of days, just to get some work done. *grin*)

UK Worried About eBay Gun Loophole
UK Worried About eBay Gun Loophole
11/04/2003 12:09 PMOver in the UK, they're suddenly worried that people are
sneaking
guns into the country via eBay. eBay won't sell guns, but will
sell gun components - which are being ordered and then assembled once
arrived. UK politicians are now trying to close this loophole by
banning the sale of even components. This really does seem like a
waste of time. If people are really intent on getting themselves
weapons, they're going to do so, whether through eBay or other means.
That doesn't mean they should be
easy to get, but is it really
worth the trouble of banning a loophole that already is being used by
the sort of folks who will immediately search out a new loophole?
Also, considering that eBay seems willing to
hand
over private info at the first phone call from anyone representing
themselves as law enforcement, you'd think that police in the UK might
prefer to simply use eBay to keep tabs on just who is importing and
building these guns.
E-Filers Not Worried About Security
E-Filers Not Worried About Security
04/15/2005 03:49 PMIt appears that all of the various
secur
ity breaches getting publicity recently haven't scared away people
from e-filing. It turns out the number one reason people
aren't e-filing their tax returns this year is that
difficu
lty in doing e-filing if you had a professional do your taxes for
you. In the meantime, though, is it really any surprise that
the IRS website is
getting bombarded by visitors? Still, though, this highlights the
fact that, for many people, convenience is much more important than
security.

Google Worried Its IPO Will Be Filtered
Away As Spam
Google Worried Its IPO Will Be Filtered
Away As Spam
08/09/2004 12:51 PMThere have been plenty of stories in the past year or so about
legitimate emails being filtered away as spam (even the NY Times
caught up on this topic last week). However, in
an amusing twist, Google is suddenly realizing that their IPO-by-email
system may run into problems with spam filters, and are trying to
pre-warn ISPs to whitelist all the emails
they're about to send out concerning the IPO. Of course, this
probably means the next big phishing expedition is going to involve
spoofed Google IPO emails. Perhaps email isn't really the best way to
go about offering such information. Meanwhile, it will be amusing to
see if reports come out that Yahoo or Hotmail just happen to classify
Google IPO emails as spam. Just think of the conspiracy theories.
