RealNetworks Breaks Into The iPod
RealNetworks Breaks Into The iPod
07/26/2004 03:32 AMWe've been complaining for a while now about how every single online
music store that opens seems to come with its
own
format and its own DRM to make the music mostly useless for anyone
who wants to actually listen to it. It looks like RealNetworks is
looking to solve that issue by
reverse engineering their
way around any obstacles. The latest move is to figure out a way
to reverse engineer (they claim it's not actually reverse engineering,
but that will likely be for the courts to sort out) Apple's FairPlay
technology, which Apple refuses to license. The question that
everyone has now, is how long it will take Apple to sue RealNetworks
for daring to make their iPods even more useful without first paying
Apple.

compatibility
07/26/2004 12:48 PMHarmony Technology Enables Consumers to Transfer Secure Digital Music
to All Popular Devices including the Apple iPod and devices from
Creative, iRiver, RCA, Rio, Samsung, and palmOne.
"Compatibility is key to bringing digital music to the masses," said
Rob Glaser, founder and CEO, RealNetworks, Inc. "Before Harmony,
consumers buying digital music got locked into a specific kind of
portable player. Harmony changes all that. Thanks to Harmony,
consumers don’t have to worry about technology when buying music.
Now anyone can buy music, move it to their favorite portable device,
and it will just work, just like the way DVD and CDs work."

Dispute
RealNetworks Returns Fire in iPod
Dispute
07/30/2004 03:56 PMWith the battle fully joined, RealNetworks defended its Harmony
digital music software against accusations from Apple that the
technology was "hacked" from the iPod's DRM (digital rights
management) application.
"Harmony follows in a well-established tradition of fully legal,
independently developed paths to achieve compatibility,"
RealNetworks says in a statement. The digital media specialist
compares the situation with Apple to the creation of IBM-compatible
PCs from Compaq.
Harmony translation software provides a way to transfer tunes from
RealNetworks' music store to the iPod, as well as to an array of other
devices, RealNetworks contends. "Harmony technology does not
remove or disable any digital-rights management system. Apple has
suggested that new laws, such as the DMCA, are relevant to this
dispute. In fact, the DMCA is not designed to prevent the creation of
new methods of locking content and explicitly allows the creation of
interoperable software," the company says.
