Streaming media company demands patent
fees from colleges 08/10/2004 12:19 PM

Some American colleges and universities received anticipated letters this week from Acacia Media , requesting the payment of licensing fees for streaming media. The firm

has sent letters to dozens of colleges in recent days claiming the schools' use of streaming video in areas like distance learning and video lectures violates company patents. The message: pay up, or risk getting sued.
"Certainly for colleges that do a lot of distance education, this could be a major problem," said Steve Worona, director of policy and networking programs at EDUCAUSE...

Acacia has been campaigning for fees for streaming media, for which it claims several patents as its intellectual property .

Finding the shortest distance between two points sounds easy enough, but computing that route takes too long and consumes too much computer memory. Researchers at Microsoft Corp. are tackling the problem so that, in the next few years, computers can map the fastest route as well as make fast adjustments for road work or traffic jams, said Michael Schroeder, assistant director of Microsoft Research's Silicon Valley lab here. It comes down to developing a better mapping algorithm, one efficient enough to do massive computations in the palm of someone's hand.

Interesting idea (all hail Halley): Do the blog before the magazine. Now the magazine itself is getting ready to launch in October, and for US$11 you can have a postal employee slap a copy down on your doorstep (or outside your carton depending on how the Bush economic recovery is working out for you) once a month for a year. There's a subscription...

Data Quality Act opens doors to
psuedoscience DoS attacks 12/08/2003 01:07 PM
The Data Quality Act, which sets standards for the quality of data used in US law-making, has turned out to be a great tool for forcing pseudoscience (asbestos isn't that bad for you) into the lawmaking process -- a way to filibuster the scientists by requiring them to disprove whatever woo-woo notions you want to raise.

As the testimony of former Clinton administration Energy official and George Washington University epidemiologist David Michaels shows, the guidelines are very troubling. Michaels' complaint is that under the guise of "peer review," industry sponsored or funded attempts to undermine good science are going to get a big boost. That's for a number of reasons, one of them being the key question of who will be doing the peer reviewing.

The current guidelines say that as far as peer review goes, scientists who have worked for government have a conflict of interest and can't participate, but scientists who have worked for industry have carte blanche. As Michaels puts it, the suggestion "that academic scientists are more beholden to public funding agencies than corporate funders is on face ludicrous." And there's more. The peer review guidelines play into clever industry strategies for using the system of science to advance their economic interests.

Court Opens Garage Doors, But Sets Murky
Precedent 09/01/2004 04:06 AM
The Court of Appeals has upheld an earlier ruling saying that it's not a violation of the DMCA to create garage door openers that get around manufacturer controls designed to force buyers to go back to the original company for replacement openers. A lot of analysis is coming out on this one for a variety of reasons -- but, basically both the case and the decision are both incredibly complicated and incredibly important. The court basically wants to establish some sort of balancing "test" for the DMCA. However, the DMCA and certain decisions associated with it are fairly problematic to begin with, so the test is somewhat convoluted and not entirely reasonable. The good part is that the court seems to recognize just how troublesome the DMCA is as written. The problem is that they don't really know what to do about it to bring it back in line with where it should be to avoid its misuse for anti-competitive purposes. It sounds like a bit of cognitive dissonance as the court tried to resolve the realization that the law really was as bad as some made it out to be with the idea that Congress couldn't possibly have meant for it to be that bad.

At its Aberdeen store, at Hazelbridge and Cambie Road, 45,000 items will initially be sold at $2 Cdn each. These are to include cosmetics, gardening tools, household goods, soft drinks, snack food and stationery.

"A public survey in Japan showed Daiso-Sangyo as being the second most recognizable brand-name retailer after Disney World in Tokyo," Fairchild chairman and CEO Thomas Fung said Tuesday. "They ranked ahead of famous brands such as Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Sony, Toyota and Starbucks."

A Dutch company that is trying to offer streaming videos of DVDs claims that they can do this without authorization from the movie studios because they're doi ng the same exact thing as a movie rental shop. They basically say that they're shipping a legal "personal copy" (allowed under Dutch law) to a user's set-top box which they watch and then "return." Chances are this is unlikely to fly in court, and it won't take long for the entertainment industry's lawyers to come knocking.

Linksys Secures Media Streaming

Linksys Secures Media Streaming 01/05/2005 07:12 AM
A multimedia adapter from Cisco Systems' Linksys Group division will use technology being supported by Intel and several major home electronics vendors to secure content streaming from a PC to a TV or stereo system. The Linksys Wireless-G Media Link, to be announced this week at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, is one of a growing number of devices for sending music, video, and photos from a PC to consumer electronics devices around a home.

The new Linksys device will include DTCP-IP (Digital Transmission Content Protection over Internet Protocol), which is designed to allow users to share content among many users in a home while protecting it from neighbors within range of a home wireless LAN, says Rob Crooke, vice president and marketing director of Intel's Desktop Platforms Group.
