Bollywood Signs Up For Kazaa Movie
Downloads... But Not Really

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.

Bollywood gambles on P2P

Bollywood gambles on P2P 12/23/2003 02:10 PM
In the UK Guardian today:

Bollywood movie fans will soon be able to download full-length features with the file-sharing software Kazaa. A deal struck between a partner of Sharman Networks Ltd, the company which owns Kazaa, and IndiaFM.com, a popular entertainment site, will allow Indian film producers to distribute movies, music and other large, rich media files online to an estimated 60 million international Kazaa users. The move follows a pilot scheme in November when Bollywood thriller Supari was offered for sale at US $2.99 and promoted through Kazaa prior to its release in India. The file was designed to self destruct after being watched and could not be copied.

MP3: Don't Stop 'til you Get to
Bollywood 04/13/2004 11:17 AM
A few days ago, Jonno pointed me to a Bollywood-flavored remake of Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough," which he found on a supercool sekrit MP3 blog that shall remain nameless. This track is phat. This track is funky. This track makes me want to do a little dance in my ergonomic chair. A little google-digging reveals the song is by a group called the Bollywood Freaks, and came out on a limited edition red vinyl 7" in the UK. I want to send them money for the funk they provide. I want more of their music. If anyone has info, cough it up.

But for now -- look! Someone dumped a copy of said funky track on a server somewhere. Download the MP3 while it lasts. Link

Xeni Jardin: Sweeter than a mouthful of ja lebi. David Boyk says:

"While I was supposed to be studying for finals, I made a mix CD to introduce dubious Westerners to Bollywood. That didn't waste enough time, so I also made a big web site that has all the tracks from the CD, plus some more, and a lot of other information to explain Bollywood movies and music, and also to help a bit with language."

Far from a waste of time, David's terrific site includes a "bollywood for dummies" primer, and a very helpful list of common Hindi words you'll encounter. As for the MP3s, man -- there are some serious gems in here, in particular the rockin' 1960s numbers.

Bollywood Vanilla Coke ad which kicks

Bollywood Vanilla Coke ad which kicks
ass 05/30/2004 05:44 PM
BoingBoing reader Vishal points us to a spectacularly cheesy Indian TV ad starring yet another one of my fut ure husbands (look, any fella who eschews SMS for pigeon as preferred love-note carrier is alright by me).

Vishal says, "This Ad is really popular in India, and I was surprised to find that the good people at Coke have it online too (RealPlayer). It features one of the hottest young actors in Bollywood, Vivek Oberoi, and features many in-jokes to '70s Bollywood films (note, especially, the lightbulb dress in the 3rd segment, a direct lift from a classic 70's movie)."

Footnote to menswear trendwatchers: take a tip from Vivek, at left -- pink vomit prints are the new black.

Update: BoingBoing reader Berklee totally harshes my mellow by saying, "Excellent choice for a future husband, but you'll have to wait until he's done with Aishwarya Rai, I'm afraid. Meanwhile, I recommend [a 2002 film starring Oberoi titled] Company. Go rent it (or download it) and enjoy this un-Bollywood-like gangster-movie!"

Kazaa has inked a deal to simultaneously distribute a theatrically released Bollywood movie, using its DRM-based Altnet technology.

"The Bollywood movie market is growing at twice the rate of Hollywood, in terms of production and revenue. This is where the benefits of P2P technology become really clear," Sharman CEO Nikki Hemming said in a statement. "P2P technology offers the movie industry a huge opportunity to massively enhance its distribution and generate revenue."

1 Million Free Songs for Download

1 Million Free Songs for Download 07/29/2004 03:28 PM

In my experience, most of the RIAA-hating nerds who swear they'll never to buy another album again continue to download copyrighted, RIAA-financed music from less-than-legal sources (and I've done it, too, so simmer down). What's crazy, though, is that if you really don't want to bend any laws, there is a wealth of free music online -- and The Red Ferret Journal just set up a Wiki (a user-edited web page) to make it even easier. There are hundreds of thousands of freely downloadable songs on the websites listed (some of them are even not techno) and thousands more non-RIAA-backed labels selling songs, too -- so if you really want to fill up that iPod without "stealing music," you do have an option to do so.

Mainly, though, I just wanted you to feel extra guilty when you download RIAA music anyway.
