Broadband over Powerline Moves into Real
Trials 06/14/2004 10:14 AM
Bits over juice starts to take off in trials, though its future is still uncertain: A Washington state public utility is working with a private Internet provide in an inexpensive 60-day trial to see how well BPL actually works, and whether customers will find it interesting. Nationwide, a few dozen trials have about 2,000 actual customers. The future of the technology depends on the real cost and the real speed when it's deployed in the field. Unlike unloaded copper wire, which has known properties, the numbers of systems and the distances involved in BPL add variables that need performance testing. Broadband has to avoid truck rolls to houses to keep costs affordable....

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.

Real Networks Discovers The Difficulty
Of Having An Open Forum 08/18/2004 06:32 AM
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.

Apple moves to patent hot unpluggable
iPod 09/18/2004 12:52 PM
We've all been there — quickly trying to transfer those important files from your external hard drive, checking the clock, and unplugging the hard drive as soon as the file is finished copying. The words may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the message is clear: You failed to properly eject your Firewire disk. Of course, these things happen, and generally, little or no data is corrupted during the blunder. But I've seen friends lose irreplaceable data by failing to press eject, and it seems time that someone does something about it. A recent <A HREF="http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2 =HITOFF&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-adv.html&r=1&p=1&f=G&l=50&d=PG01& S1=apple.AS.&OS=an/(apple)&RS=AN/apple">filing</A> with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office seems to allude that someone at Apple has had the same frustrations. On Sept. 9, the company submitted an application for a "HOT UNPLUGGABLE MEDIA STORAGE DEVICE," a peripheral device that “can be automatically prepared for removal in the event that its user removes (unplugs) it from its host computer." <I>Broadly speaking, the invention relates to improved techniques for rendering a peripheral device removable (e.g., unpluggable). According to one aspect of the invention, the peripheral device is rendered removable from a host computer without preparatory user actions. In effect, the peripheral device can be automatically prepared for removal in the event that its user removes (unplugs) it from its host computer. According to another aspect of the invention, the peripheral device includes a data storage device that is mounted to a file system of the host computer when the host computer desires access to the data storage device. Otherwise, the data storage device is normally unmounted so that if the peripheral device were to be removed (e.g., unplugged) no harm or damage to data stored therein would occur. These aspects of the invention can be utilized alone or in combination with one another. The invention is particularly well suited for peripheral devices that are media players which are resulting "hot" unpluggable without detrimental consequences.</I> It’s a little step, sure, but a giant one for us forgettable file swappers.

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.

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.

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. Link (Thanks, Jeff!)
