Real Hacks the iPod


Real Hacks the iPod 07/26/2004 09:01 AM

  • CNET: RealNetworks breaks Apple's hold on iPod. RealNetworks announced Monday that it has unlocked some of Apple Computer's most tightly held technology secrets, giving its music a way onto the popular iPod digital music player.
  • There's good news in this announcement, namely the fact that Real is forcing a tiny bit more openness on Apple, which has been trying for a winner-take-all approach to digital music. More choice, and less lock-in, by these companies is always a good idea. But Real is no prize when it comes to locking customers into another box: the one the music industry has created with its insistence on absolute control over digital music. Real's approach to selling songs is not that at all: It says you're only renting them. At least Apple says you (mostly) own what you're buying. Nonetheless, this is progress of a sort.


    Real Networks moves into iPod country


    Real Networks moves into iPod country 07/27/2004 03:53 AM

    I have purchased a total of 3 songs from iTunes and probably a 100 from the Music Match network which I have loaded on my iPod was it difficult, not at all in my opinion. I just had to be smart. I like the idea of not having to go through hoops to move the music to the iPod so Real may get some of my business. But If I was a betting man I would wager that Apple's legal team will be trying to shut this down. [Corante] [Wired ] [eWeek] [ArsTechnic a]

    Clearly, we don't have enough incompatible formats for music download stores, because Real Networks has decided they can make a real dent in the marketplace by offering yet another me-too music download store - but with increased copy protection that no one supports. Thus, you can download songs from Real, but you won't be able to play them on just about any digital music player right now. How does this benefit consumers? That part isn't clear.

    Just months after RealNetworks approached Apple with open arms to coordinate their online music strategies only to be spurned; RealNetworks shocked the world of digital music by introducing "Harmony." In the aftermath of Harmony's launch, the souring relationship between RealNetworks and Apple can be described as anything but harmonious.

    Why do iPod lovers had Real? 08/18/2004 04:33 PM
    Nelson makes a very good point: I'm puzzled by the backlash against RealNetworks for figuring out how to get music onto the iPod. Sure, I think Real makes crummy products too. But they've opened up Apple's proprietary platform, increasing choice for consumers and lowering prices. How does the user lose? Now I'm all for bashing Big Evil Companies that do Stupid Things, but I'm also a fan of cracking open that little white music jail too. Like Nelson, I don't...

    Real ships guerrilla DRM for the iPod


    Real ships guerrilla DRM for the iPod 07/26/2004 01:59 AM
    Real Networks have reverse-engineered Apple's iPod and written a player for its DRM "Helix" format, which they're giving away. This means that you'll be able to play the Helix files you buy from Real on your Apple iPod.

    I'm cautiously glad about this. It's the right idea: tech vendors should be writing tools that allow anyone to play anything on anything: it's insane to own an Apple "record player" that only plays Apple "records" -- meaning that if you buy your records from Real, you need to buy another record player.

    My only disappointment is that Real is engaged in the same behaviour: Real's records only play on players licensed by Real: it would be much more customer-friendly if Real went into the business of providing us with music in a patent-free, open standard that could be implemented by anyone.

    Google hacks are for real


    Google hacks are for real 08/06/2004 09:40 AM
    Google hacks are for real, regardless of what some uber-hackers may think or say. They can produce passwords, user IDs, credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, bank account numbers and routing codes, and more. They can also be used to troll for vulnerabilities. One quick example: using one of the simplest Google advanced operators in combination with another operator, I quickly found a number of Microsoft IIS 6.0 Authentication Manager pages exposed to the Internet on Army, Navy, state, and federal agency sites. In fact, finding the sites proved to be much easier than alerting them to the vulnerability.

    RealNetworks seemed to assume that everyone was on their side in their effort to get their downloadable songs onto iPods. They set up a page with an open comments section, officially for people to express their anger at Apple for refusing to license FairTunes. Instead, Real discovered that people can say whatever they want when you give them an open forum and they started bashing Real Networks instead. As you might expect, the open forums didn't last long -- though, expecting as much, some enterprising folks made sure to copy what was on the page before it disappeared.
