Evidence At ISP?

Did The Entertainment Industry Plant
Evidence At ISP? 03/22/2005 07:03 PM
Last week we noted yet another case where the entertainment industry was allowed to use its own enforcement to raid an ISP and cart away records, claiming that the ISP allowed copyrighted material to be available on a server. However, Slashdot is now claiming that the reason the entertainment industry knew the material was there was because they put the material their themselves. Apparently, they had an "informer" to whom they gave the necessary servers and content -- and had him install them at the ISP. In other words, the industry itself put the content at the ISP in order to raid them later -- and (they hoped) get the log files with the IP addresses of those who downloaded from the very server they put there. While there were already questions about whether using those log files violates strict privacy laws in Sweden, the fact that they planted the server makes the whole matter even more questionable. Of course, it also makes you wonder how they can claim anyone downloading the content was "unauthorized" downloading if they supplied it themselves to be set up for just that purpose.

Kazaa To Sue Entertainment Industry For
Copyright Infringement

Kazaa To Sue Entertainment Industry For
Copyright Infringement 01/23/2004 02:23 PM
In a move that seems likely to backfire on them partly out of the audacity of the move, Sharman Networks, the company behind Kazaa, can now sue record labels and Hollywood studios for copyright infringement. We had briefly mentioned this case back in September, but now it's been given permission to move forward. Sharman claims that the entertainment companies violated copyright law by using Kazaa Lite (which is not actually associated with Kazaa) to get on the network and monitor the file trading that was occurring. At the same time, they claim that those same companies broke the terms of service of Kazaa by sending threatening instant messages to file traders, warning them that they were distributing unauthorized music files. Sharman clearly has a stronger copyright case against the industry than the industry does against them (in that they're actually accusing the companies of copyright violation, rather than just "facilitating" copyright violations) - but, it still seems like a long shot that could reflect badly on them in their other efforts.

Of Education At Penn State

Entertainment Industry Gets In The Way
Of Education At Penn State 05/20/2004 04:00 PM
Penn State University has a cozy relationship with the RIAA - and it shows in a variety of policies they've put in place which seem designed more to appease their RIAA friends than to encourage education or a real analysis of issues. They were one of the first universities to kick students off the university network when it was discovered they had set up a local area system for exchanging files. Then, of course, they put in place the somewhat useless (and mostly unwanted) plan to take student funds to pay Napster so that students can get streaming music which they don't get to keep and which only works on campus. Now, Ed Felten reports that the university has forbidden any student from operating any kind of server from a dorm. Despite the fact that it seems clear that whoever came up with this policy doesn't seem to know what a server is, Felten points out just how terrible this is from an education standpoint. They're preventing students from learning about important and useful technologies just because there's a chance that students may use a server to infringe on copyrights. In other words the risk of infringement outweighs the benefits of education to the administration at Penn State.

Shocker: Entertainment Industry Worried
About File Sharing

Shocker: Entertainment Industry Worried
About File Sharing 01/04/2005 03:17 PM
In what may be the most pointless study done in quite some time, a research firm has determined that (no! really?!?) entertainment industry executives are worried about "digital piracy." The study also found that many feel it's already impacting their bottom line. Of course, what it doesn't say is that just because they're afraid of something, doesn't mean it's bad. This is the same industry that was once deathly afraid of the VCR and claimed it would completely destroy the movie industry -- when it actually revived an industry that was in trouble. Also, just because something impacts your bottom line, it doesn't mean it's bad. The automobile business impacted the horse and buggy industry, but most people realized that was a good thing in the long run. If the horse and buggy makers had realized they were in the "transportation business" and not the "horse and buggy business," they would have made out better. All it means is that the companies impacted need to learn to adjust to the changes they face in the market. So far, however, the entertainment industry hasn't shown the ability to do that with these latest changes. Instead of realizing what the "entertainment industry" really means, executives think that they're in the business of selling content on a specific medium (CDs, film etc.) rather than realizing that what they can provide encompasses a much broader picture, which opens up many new opportunities, beyond just selling individual units.

Entertainment Industry Back To Sending
Out False Takedowns

Entertainment Industry Back To Sending
Out False Takedowns 09/03/2004 07:53 PM
It's happened plenty of times before, but for some reason, no one seems to focus on how all the examples of fake DMCA takedown notices demonstrate just how screwed up the system is. Any copyright holder can send a takedown notice just because they believe that someone is offering a file that they own the copyright to... without any proof whatsoever that the file is actually an infringing file. This happened last year with a Profess or Usher, who had a file named usher.mp3 on his server -- which had absolutely nothing to do with with the more popular Usher. The latest news, however, has two more completely bogus takedown notices. One is from the MPAA claiming some open source software code is a movie, and another from the Entertainment Software Association claiming a 114kb video game from 1998 is actually a pirated copy of Doom 3. While everyone seems to laugh these "little mistakes" off, it's showing that everyone accused of unauthorized file sharing is getting accused with very little actual proof.

Entertainment Industry And Wireless
Carriers Upset About The Inevitable

Entertainment Industry And Wireless
Carriers Upset About The Inevitable 09/16/2004 11:27 AM
For years, we've been saying that a true "Napster for mobile phones" was on the way, but the recording industry and (most) wireless carriers continued to put their head in the sand and think that mobile phones were somehow different than computers. This wasn't a particularly hard lesson to learn from just a few years ago, but both industries have an incredibly large set of blinders that they seem to wear. So, in the last few weeks as news spread about both SK Telecom and Nokia developing file sharing apps -- neither of which uses copy protection -- the industries were again taken by surprise. In response to these developments, they are fighting back by... complaining. Rather than actually dealing with the issue they're out talking about how such developments could be disastrous to their money making plans and how they shouldn't be allowed to continue. In other words, they're acting like buggy makers freaked out that someone is building cars and saying it shouldn't be allowed. While it was a bit surprising that the first developments came from large industry players, if the entertainment industry and the carriers somehow convince the large companies to back down on their plans, have no fear that smaller players will fill the void. The shortsightedness of so many companies in both industries continues to amaze.

Entertainment Industry Continues
Teaching Students One Sided Lesson

Entertainment Industry Continues
Teaching Students One Sided Lesson 04/26/2004 03:41 AM
You may remember that last fall the entertainment industry began a project where they went into schools to teach a "lesson" on why file sharing was bad that included the lesson, "if you didn't pay for it, you stole it." Of course, to hammer this lesson home, the industry gave away for free DVD players and trips to Hollywood to those students who could come up with the best essays to express why anything free must be stolen (sort out the irony for yourself). Now the industry says they're so happy with the program that they're gearing up to use it next school year as well. This raises the very important question of who the hell is letting the industry into the classroom to teach a very one-sided lesson? Anyway, while the article does a good job of expressing the opinions of those who oppose this program, ("It's rather like inviting the American insurance industry into the classroom to tell kids about the future of health care") the reporter clearly got confused on the specifics of the entertainment industry's lawsuits. The article claims the MPAA and the RIAA have been suing downloaders - which isn't true. The MPAA hasn't filed any lawsuits specifically against people for using file sharing. They have filed suit against someone caught digitizing and uploading a movie though. Also, and this point is missed by any number of articles on the topic, the RIAA isn't suing people for downloading unauthorized tracks, but for sharing those tracks and offering them to others to download.

Mac mini: The Maytag Of The Computer
Industry 06/24/2005 07:23 PM

Macintouch did a poll this week, asking Mac mini users about their experiences with the machines. Of those responding, a miniscule 3% reported having problems with their minis, compared to 11-12% for the rev. B iMac G5. And according to Consumer Reports, Apple desktops and portables have for years had some of the best reliability numbers in the industry, even without the mini's stellar ratings.

Actually, it's easy to understand the reliability difference between the mini and the G5 iMac; the additional complexity that comes with the integrated display — an LCD display no less — in the iMac would naturally create a higher failure rate than the beautiful simplicity of the mini's design.

But you know, usually when Apple gets problem hardware back from users, they spiff them up and resell them as refurbished units (see the Special Deals section.) The mini has been selling since mid-January (Apple won't say how many, but analysts estimate that 138,000 were sold in the first quarter, and the second quarter has been even stronger) so you'd think that there would be some refurb units available, but I sure haven't seen them. And I've been watching.

In case you're wondering whether Macintouch's numbers are accurate, they have done polls like this in the past, and the results they got were very close to the numbers that Consumer Reports published for the same machine. So although their methods are not terribly scientific, they have proven that the numbers are an accurate reflection of the real world.
