AP - RealNetworks Inc. says it has created technology that allows songs purchased through its online music services to be played on Apple Computer Inc.'s popular iPod player, just a few months after complaining that Apple was rebuffing attempts to form an alliance.

http://www.super-sc ience-fair-projects.com/

Today your teacher announced that your school is going to have a science fair and students are responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel? Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project, rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2003. http://scout.wisc.edu/]

RealNetworks Breaks Into The iPod

RealNetworks Breaks Into The iPod 07/26/2004 03:32 AM
We've been complaining for a while now about how every single online music store that opens seems to come with its own format and its own DRM to make the music mostly useless for anyone who wants to actually listen to it. It looks like RealNetworks is looking to solve that issue by reverse engineering their way around any obstacles. The latest move is to figure out a way to reverse engineer (they claim it's not actually reverse engineering, but that will likely be for the courts to sort out) Apple's FairPlay technology, which Apple refuses to license. The question that everyone has now, is how long it will take Apple to sue RealNetworks for daring to make their iPods even more useful without first paying Apple.

REAL NETWORKS wants to make its music files playable on Microsoft's Windows Media Player format. The company, which is suing Vole for a billion dollars, said it needed the Redmond Giant's help to flog its music over the net and play its content on portable devices. According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, RealNetworks Chief Executive Rob Glaser has e-mailed both Apple's chief executive Steve Jobs and Vole's Bill Gates allowing interconnectivity between the portable versions of their software.

RealNetworks Fights Back

RealNetworks Fights Back 07/29/2004 03:19 PM
RealNetworks has issued a statement in reply to Apple's statement. According to RealNetworks, "Consumers, and not Apple, should be the ones choosing what music goes on their iPod."

"Harmony creates a way to lock content from Real's music store in a way that is compatible with the iPod, Windows Media DRM devices, and Helix DRM devices. Harmony technology does not remove or disable any digital rights management system. Apple has suggested that new laws such as the DMCA are relevant to this dispute. In fact, the DMCA is not designed to prevent the creation of new methods of locking content and explicitly allows the creation of interoperable software."

RealNetworks Struggles to Succeed

RealNetworks Struggles to Succeed 08/19/2004 01:53 AM
As covered here not once, not twice, but three times, RealNetworks just won't give up in its goal to do....what ever they're doing. In short, RealNetworks wants iPods to play their format and Apple doesn't. In response, RealNetworks created a hack for the iPod. The war has begun. Now, RealNetworks has their own "anti-Apple" site. But that's not the half of it, MacMinute has coverage on the latest juicy events. It turns out that RealNetworks issued a petition to ask Apple to allow their hack, but it was filled with anti-RealNetworks comments. In response, RealNetworks created a new petition that did not allow comments. Similarly, RealNetworks has turned off comments at their "anti-Apple" site (how can this site be "an invitation for your dialogue and thoughts" without comments?).

What really bothers me is that RealNetworks claims that Apple has "land-locked" the iPod to the iTMS and the AAC format, but that simply isn't true. The iPod can support AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, and Apple Lossless. Take your pick.

Jason Kottke was just on G4's Attack of the Show, and thanks to my hacked TiVo, it's available as a 85Mb MPEG2 torrent.

Jason did great for live TV, which is just about the most stressful thing in the world. He seemed relaxed, though the host seemed a little manic. I assume a producer was screaming in the host's ear to keep Jason moving, which caused the host to cut Jason off whenever he started sounding reflective. My favorite parts were the host violating the Adsense terms of service by goading people into clicking his ad links and the graphic "Blogging for Bling" in the background (because clearly, Jason's only in it for the benjamins).

Last week we posted a story written by my colleague David Graham titled Proven: Windows is more secure than Linux. It was one of the better-read pieces on the site this week. Four days after the article was posted, David did a Google search and found more than half a dozen sites had linked to the piece -- flattering. But at least three sites posted all or a substantial portion of the piece on their own sites -- and that's a problem.
