Apple a Monopoly?
Apple a Monopoly?
01/06/2005 12:06 PMApparently Apple isn't just taking people to court, they're also
being sued by an unhappy iTMS customer. It seems
Thomas Slattery is being "forced" to buy an iPod if he wants to use
the songs he purchased from the iTunes Music Store. Last I checked you
could listen to any song from the iTMS either on your PC or burn it to
a CD. Truth be told, he could burn it to a CD and then rip it back and
listen to it on whatever MP3 player he wanted.
"Apple has unlawfully bundled, tied, and/or leveraged its
monopoly in the market for the sale of legal online digital music
recordings to thwart competition in the separate market for portable
hard drive digital music players, and vice-versa," the suit
charged.
To follow this logic is like saying I could sue Microsoft because
they don't publish their entire software catalog for Linux or OS X.
I'm being "forced" to buy a PC with Windows on it. Should I be able to
sue simply because I can't run Access on my Mac? Hmmm... We'll see how
Mr. Slattery fares at his attempt before I send lawyers to Redmond.

these harsh terms, but you are dealing with something new, and the
question is, does the statutory monopoly that Congress has given you
reach out to that something new. And that's a very debatable question.
You don't solve it...

giant's restrictive licensing terms imposed on Japanese
personal-computer (PC) manufacturers constituted anti-competitive
behavior. The provision in question prevents PC makers from claiming
patent rights to related technologies against Microsoft or other
producers. Japan is the first to allege that the clause violates
anti-monopoly law.

An iTunes user is suing Apple under US anti-trust laws for locking
non-iPod players out of playing back iTunes music.
"Apple has turned an open and interactive standard into an artifice
that prevents consumers from using the portable hard drive digital
music player of their choice," the lawsuit states...
"Apple has unlawfully bundled, tied, and/or leveraged its monopoly in
the market for the sale of legal online digital music recordings to
thwart competition in the separate market for portable hard drive
digital music players, and vice-versa," the lawsuit said.
Mr Slattery called himself an iTunes customer who "was also forced to
purchase an Apple iPod" if he wanted to take his music with him to
listen to.

Niue Demonstrates Monopoly Politics Writ

Niue Demonstrates Monopoly Politics Writ
Small
01/22/2004 02:13 AMFree Wi-Fi in Niue challenged artificially high telecom prices: I hope
we don't seem obsessed by the tiny island nation of Niue in the
Pacific, but this article from New Zealand's National Business Review
shows the struggle between predatory pricing by a national monopoly
and a society of Internet users wanting to offer free access. Niue's
top-level domain name, .nu, has 100,000 registrants at about $30 per
year per name. The domain name is administered by an American who runs
the servers in the US and Europe. A percentage of each fee is returned
to Niue to the Internet Users Society of Niue (IUSN). The IUSN used
the money from the fees to establish Internet access to the island,
and eventually to propose and start building island-wide free Wi-Fi
service. Unfortunately for the local monopoly telecom, this free
access bypasses the local metered phone service and could serve as a
conduit for Internet phone calls. Only 1,700 folks live on Niue now
(and they might abandon ship, according to articles after the cyclone
-- the island's highest point is 68 meters), but 20,000 Niueans live
in New Zealand, which has a complicated relationship with the
islanders. Niue is independent in local affairs; the Kiwi government
handles external affairs and defense. It also contributes $2.6 million
per year to Niue. The article notes with chagrin that the Kiwis will
pay for helping to rebuild the infrastructure in Niue, but that the
telecom monopoly will certainly continue its pricing structure....
