Under the terms of some of the deals, the prices for some of the
most popular singles could rise to $1.25, according to sources
familiar with the negotiations. Songs have previously been priced at
99 cents across the board.
And, apparently, album
prices will rise even higher than the CDs cost in stores. Now there's
a way to encourage buyers.
Let's see. Charging more on a medium where the manufacturing costs are
zero -- now that's a way to encourage sales. Brilliant.

Part I: Intel as enemy
Part I: Intel as enemy
06/05/2005 11:20 PMAs Apple fans, we are no strangers to imitation. Whenever something
new exits the doors of Cupertino’s laboratories, it’s only a matter of
time — usually five or six months — until a similar looking but
inferior product hits shelves, aimed at either Windows users or, in
the case of the iPod, bargain-hunters.
But this week's copycat of the Mac mini by AOpen is perhaps worst of
all.
It's been known for some time that an Intel-commissioned micro PC has
been in the works since Apple unveiled its breakthrough $499 Mac at
Macworld San Francisco in January. Intel seemed to make no secret of
its attempts to derail whatever inroads the mini had made into its
stranglehold on the market.
So, the Mini PC was born. Or, rather, cloned. (Really. That’s what
it's called.)
But here's the funny part: "AOpen's R&D expertise has progressed from
desktop platforms to small form factor platforms. Now AOpen takes a
giant leap forward to develop consumer and ultra small form factor
platforms," said Tony Yang, marketing director of Aopen, as quoted in
the press release which called the Mini PC "revolutionary" and
"blockbuster."
So R&D (which stands for research and development, in case you didn’t
already know) means taking an existing product and tailoring it for
your own audience, with no significant improvements?
Another square personal computer with a slot-loading drive and a small
footprint is revolutionary? Breakthrough? Last December, perhaps.
But there are a few things worth noting. For one, it's a
square-half-inch smaller than the Mac mini, though AOpen doesn't
plaster "world's smallest personal computer" on its site. Instead, it
calls the Mini PC "the world’s smallest Intel PC platform," adding
almost as an innocent afterthought, "but also smaller than a similar
model on the market."
A similar model? C'mon…
Also, the Mini PC comes standard with Bluetooth and WiFi, and adds an
S-Video and component video (YpbPr) connectors for easy HD setup. And,
while it's not mentioned in the press release, I'm quite sure it will
come with a keyboard and a mouse.
But, surprisingly, Apple seems to have undercut AOpen on price: "The
Pentium M and Windows XP are pretty expensive components. It would be
hard to hit the Mac mini's $499 price point with that combo," said IDC
analyst Roger Kay.
So what's left? A higher-priced clone of the Mac mini with a tired
operating system and a superiority complex? Who's going to buy it?
Apparently, Vincent Cho, VP and GM of Solution Products Business Unit
at AOpen knows. "(B)illions of Win-tel users in the world no longer
have to tolerate the hassle of switching operating systems just to
take advantage of the miniaturized and stylish personal computing
devices."
If people want to switch, they’re going to switch for reasons like
stability and security. Sure, Apple's designs are breathtaking, but I
don’t think there’s much of a market for people who are willing to pay
more for a similar-looking miniature PC just because it runs Windows.
Of course, I could be wrong, and we all could be closet Windows users
just waiting for the right piece of hardware.
Coming tomorrow: Intel as friend, or "I don't think the two — Mac mini
and whatever Intel puts out — are really in the same market; that is,
of course, unless Apple starts running OS X on x86 hardware."

A Group Is Its Own Worst Enemy
01/07/2004 02:54 PM
(This essay is a lightly edited version of a talk, "A Group Is Its Own
Worst Enemy", about persistent patterns in the design and operation of
large-scale and long-lived online groups. I gave this talk at the
O'Reilly Emerging Tech conference in April of 2003.)
This talk is in three parts. The best explanation I have found for
the kinds of things that happen when groups of humans interact is
psychological research that predates the Internet, so the first part
is going to be about W.R. Bion's research, which I will talk about in
a moment, research that I believe explains how and why a group is its
own worst enemy.
The second part is: Why now? What's going on now that makes this
worth thinking about? I think we're seeing a revolution in social
software in the current environment that's really interesting.
And third, I want to identify some things, about half a dozen things,
in fact, that I think are core to any software that supports larger,
long-lived groups.

Christmas! My old enemy! We meet at
last...
12/19/2003 03:48 PMImagine me, if you will, in a smoking jacket. Imagine a thin moody
moustache is slithering across my upper lip rather than the manly
unkemptness that I call my beard. Imagine that I'm sitting in a 60s
pod-chair - almost completely spherical apart from a hole from which I
peer, and suspended on the slightest tapering base. Imagine as you
enter, I turn around to face you with a smile of grim satisfaction on
my face. And then I say:
"Ah Christmas! My old enemy! We meet at
last..."
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm terribly afraid that you're not likely to
get much more plasticbaggery over the next week, as I have an
astonishing range of Christmas-related activities to indulge myself
in. At least part of that period will be spent with my family who
believe that any computer than runs a browser after IE4 and does so
via a non-free dial-up ISP (that cuts you off every twenty seconds) is
the closest thing to pure evil that they can imagine. Such an
environment is not conducive to regular postage. I shall return with
many stories shortly before the New Year (and I'll still be available
on e-mail and there's always someone to talk to on Barbelith if you get
desperate), but otherwise, if I don't see you before, have a wonderful
Christmas!
