iPod lease: Life is recurring
iPod lease: Life is recurring
02/05/2005 10:10 PMWhen the iTunes Music Store was unveiled in April 2003, it was clear
that a revolution had begun. Even if it hadn’t sold a million songs in
its first week; 100 million in its first 15 months; or a quarter
billion in less than two years, Apple had certainly given record
companies something to talk about in the wake of the Napster crisis.
And while people questioned its degree of success, no one really
scoffed at the idea, not even Windows users, who warmly embraced their
own version six months later.
But after two years, perhaps it's time to rethink the formula, much
like Apple has — repeatedly — with the iPod.
With the current rate of a million songs sold per day, there's no
question that iTunes can coast through the next few years without
losing much of its market share. But since it seems to have adopted a
new aggressive approach to sales and market dominance, why not add a
new trick to old dog’s arsenal?
Steve Jobs has already proven his initial point of "people want to own
their music," but Napster, arguably the main competitor to iTunes, has
suddenly taken to promoting its "Napster To Go" subscription service,
which has been available since last year:
For only $14.95 a month, you can fill and refill your compatible MP3
player with your favorite music, artists you've just discovered and
the latest releases without paying 99¢ per track. Get everything
Napster has to offer plus unlimited music for your Napster To
Go-compatible MP3 player.
The key here, of course, is "without paying 99¢ per track," which
Napster plasters all over its site without shame. And now, Napster is
set for an advertising blitz during the Super Bowl.
According to the Associated Press, the subscription idea is a little
tricky. The Microsoft-developed system "works by essentially putting a
timer on the tracks loaded on the player. Every time the user connects
the player to the PC and the music service, the player automatically
checks whether the user's subscription is still in effect. Songs stop
playing if the subscription has lapsed. If the user doesn't regularly
synch up the player with the service, the songs go dead as well."
For what it's worth, there are millions of iPod users out there who
have never purchased a single track off iTunes (or Napster). Despite
the legal actions of the RIAA, file sharing is still rampant, and with
the proliferation of Russian sites like AllofMP3.com and MP3Search.ru,
people can fill up their iPods for next to nothing.
However, a million songs a day isn't too shabby, and music lovers have
proved that they do want to own their music. But when you're listening
to your iPod at the beach, does it matter how the songs were acquired?
Just like a car radio, if you hear a song you like (that you don’t
own), you buy it.
Still, I think Napster is missing the mark with its "without paying
99¢ per track" handle. But a subscription service has the potential to
become an additional source of income for iTunes without taking away
from its overall success.
Not that Apple has anything to worry about. After all, Napster tracks
still won't play on an iPod — even if they were giving them
away.

CNN: Modulating the Debate
11/11/2003 02:06 PM "Mac
or PC" question planted at the Rock the Vote debate.
After much ridicule and criticism over her question, Brown University
student Alexandra Trustman has written an Op-Ed to the campus Daily
Herald explaining that CNN planted the question with her so they could
"modulate the event" in order to keep the debate
"light-hearted" making it easier for "the candidates to
relate to a younger audience." Trustman, feeling that the
question CNN gave her was not relevant, wrote a different, and more
relevant she thought, question on "how, if elected, the
candidates would use technology in their administrations." The
executive producer told her just to read the card they had given
her.
Howard Kurtz reports today that
CNN regrets getting caught the producer's
actions.

tp://www.dlib.org/dlib/december03/connaway/12connaway.html In a study that compared the perceived costs to libraries of
providing print and electronic materials, researchers found that
librarians believe that labor, space requirements and material
resources would be less costly in an all-digital library than in a
paper library. However, those librarians expressed a wide range of
views on exactly how much cheaper digital should be. Participants
expressed some concern that higher salaries might be needed to attract
and retain a more knowledgeable and skilled level of staff needed to
effectively manage an all-digital library, thereby balancing out a
substantial portion of the potential savings. Respondents also noted
concerns related to the costs of managing both the digital and paper
library simultaneously, which is the most common current scenario. The
authors conclude that these uncertainties warrant the continued study
of the resources needed to transition from a paper to a digital
library.
