The Fight Between Sharing Culture And
Owning Culture

The Fight Between Sharing Culture And
Owning Culture 06/22/2005 02:17 AM
It seems that museums are finally starting to realize that the digital age represents a real opportunity for them to reach many new people by digitizing their offerings and sharing the culture they represent across a much wider audience than a physical museum allows. It seems that many museums are having trouble figuring out how to digitize their collections, and would welcome help in doing so. However, another story points out how that can cause problems when the people involved get stuck on intellectual property issues. Apparently some people who created 3D digital versions of Michelangelo's David are freaking out that if they share the digitization without some form of copy protection people might (gasp!) share it without permission. Wait a second... isn't that what they should want? That would allow them to share the cultural wonder with many, many more people, and allow them to experience it in ways never possible before. That's a good thing, not something to be worried about. However, in an age where people seem to think that every idea, concept, software or piece of data needs to be "owned" and locked up, apparently it's the natural response -- and that's unfortunate for every culture.

Who will buy Tivo for scrap?

Who will buy Tivo for scrap? 02/05/2005 10:16 PM

OK, I have to admit it. Tivo's goose is cooked. I've been a Tivo user for years, and like most Tivo owners, I absolutely love the product. I've been convinced since I first plugged it in that some day, all TV would work like this. And I'm still convinced of that. Television as a fixed schedule grid determined by networks and cable operators is doomed. User control is the future of TV.

Unfortunately, Tivo the company hasn't done as well as Tivo the idea, or Tivo the product design. The latest bad news is that Marty Yudkovitz, the ABC veteran brought in as President, is resigning. This after Mike Ramsay announced he would step down as CEO. Maybe someone else will come in and pull off a miraculous turnaround, but it seems unlikely. Cable operators and companies like Microsoft are launching their own digital recorders (DVRs), limiting Tivo's growth prospects.

Tivo, though, still has two big assets. I'm reasonably confident those assets will be valuable enough for one of the major industry players to purchase, or perhaps a consortium. The assets are Tivo's brand, and its patents.

Like Google, Tivo has reached "verb" status as a technology brand. People talk about "Tivoing" programs, because they associate the name with the whole concept of DVRs. That's worth a lot, even to a company that plans to scrap Tivo's actual technology. Just ask the good folks at Roxio, er, Napster.

Perhaps even more significant, though, is Tivo's intellectual property. I don't know exactly what patents Tivo holds, but it has a significant portfolio of assets, because it has been in the game so long and innovated in so many areas. Big interests that want to compete in the video space -- and that, today, means some very big interests -- won't want to be on the other side of those patents. We saw a similar story recently with Intertrust, which held key digital rights management patents that led to an acquisition by Sony and Philips.
