iTunes User Sues Apple For Only Letting

iTunes User Sues Apple For Only Letting
Music Play On The iPod 01/05/2005 10:30 PM
Well, this should be interesting. An "unhappy" iTunes user is now suing Apple for antitrust violations, claiming that they broke antitrust laws by only allowing their music to play on iPods -- blocking out other music players from the market. It's unlikely that he'll win the lawsuit, and honestly, it sounds more like a setup by an Apple competitor than just some individual who feels wronged. The guy in question says he was "forced" to buy an iPod in order to make use of the music he bought on iTunes, but the courts will likely point out that he could have gone to a competing online music store. Of course, what this really highlights is how some of these copy protection issues are building fragmented worlds. How would people react if the CDs they bought at Tower Records could only play on Tower-branded radios? Thanks to the way the industry views intellectual property online, the end result is a lot of competing separate worlds, which actively discourages use.

Coke's music downloads: the real thing?

Coke's music downloads: the real thing? 12/08/2003 04:47 PM
Coca-Cola is launching a digital music download service in the UK:

Coca-Cola will become the first high-profile consumer brand to get involved directly in the music business, launching what it claims will be the largest collection of tracks yet available. (...) The site, MyCokeMusic.com, will launch in January next year offering a catalogue of over 250,000 new and recent hits from more than 8,500 artists with all four major record labels represented.

It also promises back catalogue hits from established artists, although some major acts such as The Beatles have yet to allow their songs to be sold digitally. Given the ongoing controversy over the apparent conflict between its claim it would not market its drinks to under-12s and its sponsorship of the chart, Coca-Cola today made it clear only those over 18 would be able to buy music through the site. It plans to back the launch with a year-long campaign to promote legal music downloads, including promotions on its cans and bottles to win free tracks.

Apple and Real Networks are feuding over access to Apple's popular iPod music player. Real released Harmony , an application which allows users to play music downloaded from Real's online music store in, among other players, the iPod. The iPod is designed to play music downloaded from iTunes , its popular online music store , and especially those encoded with Apple's Advanced Audio Codec ( AAC ) standard. Apple attacked the move, and threatened a programming reaction:

"We are stunned that RealNetworks has adopted the tactics and ethics of a hacker Latest News about hacker to break into the iPod, and we are investigating the implications of their actions under the DMCA [Digital Millenium Copyright Act] and other laws. We strongly caution Real and their customers that when we update our iPod software from time to time, it is highly likely that Real's Harmony technology will cease to work with current and future iPods."

Real, whose CEO had asked Apple to open the iPod to other file formats earlier this year , reiterated its request.
