The Difference Between Online Content
And Broadcast Content
02/10/2004 02:46 PM

Major League Baseball made news last year for claim ing to own all in-progress game data - saying they were going to go after websites that reported what was happening at a game in real-time. It didn't matter that the law is pretty clear that you can't copyright facts - MLB believes that just presenting the data is a "rebroadcast" of the game. That said, I guess it's no surprise to hear that they now believe that web audio and video broadcasts of games should work the same way as television broadcasts with a content provider paying a huge upfront fee for the rights to the games, and then telling them they can make it back in ad revenue and subscription fees. Of course, the various internet sites they've approached with this plan have been laughing them out the door, and pointing out that they're not television stations, and they just want to provide something useful to their users - but aren't going to lose money to do so. While MLB has been at the forefront of offering streaming video and audio, it appears they still look on this as a broadcast medium, and not the interactive medium it actually is. They're doing their best to squeeze more money out of existing fans, rather than attract new fans, which is dangerous for the future of the sport. Not only do you anger your biggest fans, you also make it less likely that you're going to pick up new fans.

There isn't a compelling business argument today that would suggest that giving away our content is a good idea.

It's neat to be revered by all as a repository of information, but without a visible associated profit, I can certainly understand why it could be rejected by higher-ups. In the interests of simplifying things, I'm going to make a gross generalization of this and call it: "How do I make money while giving everything away for free?": Advertising The scourge of optic nerves everywhere can still be useful when done tactfully.

This case may turn out to be a lot more important than people realize, but a judge has ruled that an aggregator of information on boat sales did not infringe the copyrights of a site they scraped for information. The judge pointed out that the aggregator only took factual info (which is not copyrightable) and the images it took weren't actually the property of the site, but those who uploaded them. This does leave open the possibility that those users could sue, but considering the fact that they're trying to sell their boats, they probably appreciate the wider exposure. Of course, all of this might not matter if Congress passes a law allowin g companies to copyright databases.

AP Says Its Time To Charge Partners For
Online Content
04/18/2005 11:29 PM
This probably doesn't come as a shock to many, but at its annual meeting today, the Associated Press announced that it would begin charging newspapers and broadcasters to post its content online starting in 2006. Currently, licensees of AP content are allowed take content they've licensed for print and repurpose it for online at no additional charge. Clearly, the AP is trying to evolve itself to meet the shifting media consumption of the average user, from trying to charg e Google News for AP content to offering charg ing several different versions of an AP story. With its new "eAP" platform, licensees will be able to access news via a searchable database, complete with tags. However, the question remains, will the current licensees see the benefit to paying for the same exact commodity content? The Associated Press is making the bet that online is now part of its affiliates' long term strategy. Feeling the pinch in their classified and advertising revenues, newspapers are scrambling to invest in the web. The AP realizes that it has been giving away too much for too little. Couple with the fact that the AP is starting to build its own online presence, and the AP can hope for two endgame scenarios. Scenario one is that the affiliates find an adequate return in licensing AP content; in this case, the AP is able to extend its current model to the online medium. Scenario two is that most licensees cannot justify paying for the commodity content, and only a few larger trafficked sites decide to take on the expense. In that case, the AP has its own ad-supported news site, which could end up being the one main source for AP content -- but it could also lose out on content from members who are upset at the higher fees. Either way, we're witnessing the latest experiment in how the traditional press makes its way into the internet world.

Taking A Tiered Approach To Fee-Based
Content Online
10/30/2003 11:46 PM
Mark Glaser's latest piece at OJR looks at the plans to charge for the online content at canada.com, with a focus on how the pay system will work on tiers. The basic level of news access will be free, but columnists and opinion pieces get shifted up to tier 2 - which requires a subscription to a CanWest newspaper. Tier 3 offers a PDF version of the newspaper, mainly targeted at out of towners who want to get the paper. Tier 4 is their "holy grail" - where they'll add in extra multimedia content. It'll be an interesting experiment, but so far, most (but certainly not all) attempts at charging for online newspaper content has failed miserably. The problem is that you're competing against tons of free content that is often considered as good, if not better. You have to really offer something different, that can't be found elsewhere, and which people place a value on. The Wall Street Journal has been able to do that. Most news organizations, though, can't get that sort of buy-in. There are also pretty big risks in taking this route. Page views drop precipitously - so if you don't get back the lost ad revenue in subscription fees, you're actually worse off. You also have to realize that there are additional costs associated with billing, customer support, and maintaining subscriptions (partly offset by lower bandwidth fees). There's also the larger question of blocking your content off from the world. What makes content increasingly valuable these days is the links between it and other content. That is, after all, what makes the web what it is. Blocking up your content behind a paid wall like that cuts you out of that process, for the most part. Depending on what they're trying to do, some sites may be able to get away with that, but the risks are pretty big. It makes it much more difficult for new people (customers) to discover you and realize you might be relevant to their lives. It also makes your overall content less valuable because there isn't any of the additional valuable discussions that often go on around good content.

Why Charging For Newspaper Content
Online Doesn't Make Sense


Why Charging For Newspaper Content
Online Doesn't Make Sense
11/07/2003 04:16 AM
One of the arguments that shows up here repeatedly is on the backwardness of local newspapers charging for online content. There are a number of reasons why it's a bad idea - from the level of taking yourself out of the online discussion and believing that walled garden content can survive to misunderstanding the very basic economics of the internet. Still, many newspapers are trying to do so, and some even believe that it's going well. Along comes Vin Crosbie, who knows both the newspaper business and the online content world, to smack a little sense into them. The Albuquerque Journal explained why they thought they were brilliant for creating a "successful" operation charging for their online content, and Crosbie picks apart the argument, bit by bit, and explains how they're actually losing money on this plan - and how all their other examples of newspapers charging for online content are bad (or irrelevant) examples. If you're interested in the economics of online content, it's worth a read.

Aggregator NewsGator 2.0 Adds

Integration, and Powerful Tools for
Developers
01/07/2004 06:31 PM

Latest Version of NewsGator, the Premier News Aggregator for Microsoft Outlook, Adds Support for Multiple Machines and Synchronization with Other Platforms and Mobile Devices, In Addition to Powerful Developer Tools and Other Capabilities.

LAS VEGAS and Denver, CO -- January 7, 2004 -- NewsGator 2.0, a new version of the popular news aggregator, was announced today by NewsGator Technologies at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. NewsGator retrieves news from news sites, weblogs, newsgroups, and other information sources that support the RSS or Atom syndication formats, and automatically integrates the news items into Microsoft Outlook. RSS (Rich Site Summary) News Syndication is an emerging method of staying abreast with rapidly changing information and allows users to sort, organize, group and search news in multiple ways. Using NewsGator, users can read content offline making information readily accessible any time.

Major New features in NewsGator 2.0:

  • NewsGator Online Services integration -- NewsGator 2.0 includes tight integration for the new NewsGator Online Services platform, which allows users to take advantage of powerful subscription synchronization capabilities. Users can also read related content displayed on the NewsPage, seamlessly access custom search feeds, and easily locate exclusive premium content.
  • Subscription synchronization -- When used with the new NewsGator Online Services platform, NewsGator 2.0 allows users to synchronize their subscriptions between multiple machines, as well as other editions of NewsGator available with NewsGator Online Services.
  • NewsGator Extension API -- NewsGator 2.0 has a powerful new API available for third-party developers, allowing them to build extensions to NewsGator to support numerous new scenarios. With this move, NewsGator extends beyond just an application, becoming a platform allowing developers to build a variety of new applications.
  • Arbitrary RSS extension support -- NewsGator 2.0 is the first mainstream content aggregation tool to support arbitrary extensions in RSS or Atom feeds. Users or publishers can add arbitrary content into their feeds, and NewsGator is now able to process this custom data. Users can modify the rendering of items, add columns in Outlook, or build custom extension processors in .NET. For example, an extension can be written to add an appointment to the Outlook calendar when a meeting is announced in a feed. The possibilities are particularly exciting for businesses looking to integrate workflow applications with RSS and Atom feeds.

There are many other new capabilities and features in NewsGator 2.0, including support for enclosures and attachments in feeds, customizable rendering, and much more. And while NewsGator has always been tightly integrated with Internet Explorer to allow easy subscription to new feeds, NewsGator 2.0 enhances this integration with single-click subscription to feeds from a web site.

NewsGator 2.0 works with Microsoft Outlook 2000 or later, and will be available on January 19, 2004 from http://www.newsgator.com. Pricing is $29 (U.S.) per copy, with quantity discounts available.

Advertising Is Content


Advertising Is Content 07/26/2004 02:27 PM
This has been an ongoing theme< /a> around here, but it looks like slowly, but surely, TV execs are realizing that advertising is content. For too long, many people assumed that content was what brought people in, and advertising was the annoying stuff they put up with to see the stuff they wanted. When you begin to realize that advertising itself is content (and that any content can be used for advertising), it opens up a whole new world of possibilities, where things like TiVo and unauthorized downloading aren't scary. In fact, they're so not scary that they start to look like wide open opportunities. E-Media Tidbits is noticing the fact that commercials are apparently starting to become entertaining enough on their own that there's now a whole TV channel devoted to them. I don't think this is really that new. For years, there have been successful TV shows playing "the funniest commercials." AdCritic was hugely popular in attracting visitors (though, never came up with a good business model) years back showing that people wanted to watch commercials. In fact, it seems like a TV show of commercials is actually a step backwards, making people sit through random commercials, rather than letting them pick and choose, such as at AdCritic or one of the sites that have tried to do similar offerings.
