Penn State begins free music download
service for students
01/18/2004 02:46 PM
On January 12, the University of Pennsylvania began
providing its on campus student body free access to Napster 2.0's subscription
music service through a campus-wide contract with Napster. The contract allows students to listen to
streaming audio or "tethered downloads" for free. (Tethered downloads
are downloaded music files that will only play as long as the user
maintains a subscription to Napster, or in this case, as long as the
student remains at Penn State.) Alternately, students can pay 99¢ a
track to burn songs to disk or transfer them to a mp3 player.
According to the
Chronicle of Higher Education (subscription required) other
schools are watching the experiment
closely to see if the availability of free legal music downloads will
reduce illegal file sharing on campus. As part of the contract,
Napster has provided local caching servers for about 90 percent of the
most requested songs which is expected to improve performance and
reduce network congestion. According to Penn State Live , almost
3000 students (of 17,000 eligible students) registered for the service
on the first day, streaming or downloading about 100,000 songs. No
network congestion was reported.

Creative Commons remix license to legalise it!
"I've been getting all these great mixes sent to me out of the U.K.
for years and years," he told Attitude magazine, "and I just started
saying to the record company, 'Look, I really, really love what they
are doing.' I think that my record company was a little taken aback
but, genuinely, if I could make that type of music then I would. If I
could master the equipment then I would love to. Maybe I will now that
I've got my own studio set up."

and is currently the SE Regional Chairman for Bush-Cheney '04. As a
result of the new technology, we are turning to the politics of an
earlier time — face to face, neighbor to neighbor. The stakes
are high and the ideological divide is more even than since the 1880s.
Also, we've lost confidence in the dominant media. Howard Greenstein:

Open Letter to Reed Hastings
07/30/2004 10:06 AMDude,
You (and your company) got where it is via innovation, chutzpah and
lots of luck.
You were the first to fiure out the balance between meatspace and
cyberspace in regards to content-on-demand.
Congrats!
But now I hear that you're doing a me-to movie download play and
I'm sorry - that's just not enough!
You REALLY need to think seriously about what value added you can
offer that will differentiate your downloading service from the rest
and how your brand and customer base can be best leveraged.
And being a me-too copycat ain't that.
You collaborative filtering sucks and we (your loyal customers)
have been eagerly awaiting the time when you get a clue about that.
Wal-mart and Blockbuster are gonna kick your ass - unless you stay
out ahead of the curve.
Here's a hint: THINK PEOPLE!
Rafa

An interview with Reed Hastings, CEO of Netflix, on VOD,
online delivery and others issues.
On online delivery: "We're focused on downloading to your TV, over
the Internet, and that's about all we've said to date. The big
advantage we have is that mixing it with DVD, customers can get
unlimited DVDs and unlimited downloads under one subscription."

Penn State Does Deal To Provide Sort Of

Penn State Does Deal To Provide Sort Of
Free Music Streams To Students
11/05/2003 09:23 PMWell, it's a step, but it's not as big a deal as some are going to
make it out to be. Over at Penn State they've been
talking
about this idea for a while, but they've now
signed a deal with Roxio's Napster 2.0 to provide
"free" music streams to students on campus. They're really hyping up
the whole free bit, but I'm quite sure the music industry is still
getting paid from someone - and that someone is Penn State. So, while
it may appear free, the price will get added into tuition or other
fees. Meanwhile, the offering is nice, but it's not real file
sharing. It's not even downloads. They just allow streaming music
for what Napster happens to have in its library. If they want more,
they're out of luck. If they want to download or burn to a CD, they
have to pay. Of course, this doesn't exactly fit with the MPAA's
educational campaign of
"if you
didn't buy it, you stole it". If anything, this sort of thing
might confuse the message. That said, I still think it's good that
there's at least some recognition for alternative business models,
even if I'm not sure this is a particularly good one.

06/25/2004 12:01 PMA correspondent notes that Amtrak's waiting room at Penn Station has

arrived at the Amtrak waiting-room at Penn Station. After filling in
the personal info ( they have the nerve to ask for the last four
digits of your SS number!)... He was on a PDA and the page failed to
allow him to purchase a connection. A call to AT&T Wireless Wi-Fi
was a waste of time, the lady I talked to was clueless. The funny part
is that I got far enough into the process to receive an 'Thank you for
registering for the AT&T Wireless e-Wallet' e-mail. The
correspondent notes, There's a Starbucks at the other end of the
station (I have an account with them) and hopefully the McDonald's
also in the station will work again soon. And then Verizon which works
from the McDonald's on 7th Ave. if you sit close enough to the front
window....
