ipod_eleven.jpgConvenience store chain 7-Eleven is determined to dip their Slurpee straws into the world of digital content, looking to offer music, movies and whatever else they can think of to their customers, saying "customers should be able to walk into a 7-Eleven store to burn their favorite songs onto a CD or download content onto their portable music player." Picture-perfect scenario: Their system allows me to bookmark a song I like on the radio so that when I go to 7-Eleven next, it asks me to confirm my song purchase when paying for gas and sends them (wirelessly) to my portable/car media player. With their talk that the digital delivery system will be viable for them within 10 years, I think they could have something that advanced up and running by then. (Thanks, Ravi!)

German company RapidSolution Software has released the Windows software Tunebite. Music tracks purchased from the Internet are copy-protected and involve important restrictions for many users when they are played back. With the option to re-record them while they are played, Tunebite legally provides the user with new music files without restrictions. This ensures that music bought from Apple iTunes, Sony Connect, AOL or other music platforms in the Internet can be played back and listened to from everywhere. [PRWEB Sep 13, 2004]

Bollywood Signs Up For Kazaa Movie
Downloads... But Not Really
12/23/2003 05:39 PM
There have been a few stories about "legitimate" companies doing deals with Kazaa, but once you get past the headline, you realize that it's not true at all. Just like all those other deals the headlines trumpeting a deal between some some Bollywood film makers and Kazaa isn't really about Kazaa at all. Instead, it's a deal with Kazaa's sister company Altnet, which runs a service within Kazaa to distribute approved copy protected content. So, this isn't at all about film makers understanding the promotional value of free downloads, but rather them trying to piggyback copy protection (in this case files that supposedly "self-destruct" after a single $3 viewing) on the popularity of Kazaa. The deal isn't even that good. $3 for a product that self-destructs after a single viewing? You get a better deal going to the local video store. Meanwhile, though, they get all the publicity of having the film "offered on Kazaa". All Altnet is really doing is bolting a pay-for service (like iTunes) into Kazaa. It doesn't leverage the real benefits of a distributed file sharing network at all.

cinemanow_logo.jpg imageCinemaNow is set to complete a deal with most of the major television networks (only Paramont/Viacom is a hold out) to provide per-episode downloads of television shows—maybe even before they hit DVD. Up to this point, CinemaNow hasn't had much success (by my estimation), namely because it takes so long to download a high-quality, two-hour movie. People are probably more willing to accept a lower-quality video file for television, though, especially for something like a 30 minute sit-com. The real question will be price, of course. $1 to $3 sounds about right for an episode (especially if we don't ever have to buy that copy again to download it to different devices), but as is typical with legal download services, it'll probably be more expensive than buying the real-world media option (in this case, DVD Season Packs).

Mysterious video clip of skirmish in
Middle East
06/04/2004 02:20 PM
I don't know anything about this video clip, and it seems like the guy who posted it ("Eric Bruderton") doesn't really know, either. But he writes that he's afraid of losing his life for posting it. It shows some Americans in a Middle Eastern country getting shot at with rocket launchers, and they're shooting back. Then they hop in a jeep and drive away, and another vehicle chases them, shooting missiles at them. It looks real, but something about the occasional bursts of static seem like they were edited in. Could this be a stealth marketing campaign for a movie?
You’ve probably come here for answers about the clip. I wish I could give them to you. I don’t know these people, I don’t know who’s shooting at them and I don’t know why they are being targeted. I don’t even know where they are. Maybe the Middle East. All I do know is that it’s important. Important enough that by the time you’ve read this, Eric Bruderton will likely have been erased from existence, both literally and figuratively.
Link CarbWire's Jon Gales sez: It's a movie... Like with actors and stuff :P. That page you linked was just viral marketing. Check these links: Hollywood Reporter, Film Threat , September Tapes. It had me going too, but the faux static stuff gave it away.

Amazing dining at Eleven Madison Park


Amazing dining at Eleven Madison Park 05/21/2004 05:16 PM
I've had my share of tasting menus but last night's six-course tasting menu at Eleven Madison Park was one of the best. With wonderful big windows looking onto the lush Madison Square Park, and an interior filled with flowers of all kinds, Eleven Madison Park's atmosphere got the evening off to a great start. The champagne that followed continued the thrill. Usually the tasting menu is a series of small plates, demonstrating the breadth and depth of the kitchen. At Eleven Madison Park, the breadth is more visible because they don't serve everyone the same dish. So each course was actually one thing for Jason and something different for me. Like a creamy pea flan with morels for one and asparagus with goat cheese for the other. Or skate in brown butter and cod. Arctic char and salmon. Each course we ate half of what was on the plate, then switched. So the six-course menu (which actually eight courses counting the tuna tartare amuse bouche and the chocolate soufflé) ended up providing eleven different things to eat. And wowzers, but where they good! The pea flan was creamy and sweet and the most beautiful shade of green. The four fish courses were each distinct, each wonderful. And the only course that was the same for both of us was a côte du boeuf -- beef -- that was perhaps the best piece of meat I've ever eaten in my life. It was such a great experience to have so many textures, so many flavors -- and with the wine flight we had to accompany it, so many different wine tastes -- that I wonder why I'd ever want just a larger plate of one thing. I am fully subscribed to the Thomas Keller school of thought when it comes to portion size: three or four bites is a wonderful amount, enough that you experience it and yet not so much your tongue tires of the flavors. Each last bite leaves you wanting more. And yet the next course comes and it's another exiting adventure and new flavors. I can still nearly taste the pea flan on my tongue! I definitely recommend Eleven Madison Park and hope to have the pleasure of dining again there someday.
