the film industry's lobbying group has launched lawsuits
against hundred of alleged copyright infringers.
One lawsuit, obtained by The Associated Press, targets 18 individuals
and was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of
Missouri in St. Louis.
Other lawsuits are believed to have been filed in
New York, Philadelphia and other areas with large concentrations of
high-speed Internet customers. Such connections are required to

Record Industry Faces Duel Over New
'DualDiscs'
08/06/2004 06:24 PMPlans to sell new hybrid CD/DVDs have hit legal and licensing snags
that threaten to scuttle a mass rollout that the hard-hit music
industry had been counting on to aid its recovery, people familiar
with the matter said this week Record makers are enjoying a rebound
after a three-year sales slump blamed largely on online piracy.
Efforts to control piracy and the growth of legal Web music services
like Apple Computer Inc.'s (AAPL.O: Quote, Profile, Research) iTunes
have helped.
The labels also have spurred sales by packaging "bonus" DVDs
with CDs. In February, several began test marketing the new hybrid
discs -- CD on one side and DVD on the other. They see these
"DualDiscs" as a next generation product that marries the
booming market for DVDs with declining CDs. "It's not like the
coming of the CD, but we did really well with them," said Greg
Harrington, manager of Tower Records in Cambridge, Massachusetts,
which took part in the test.

Record Industry Sues 754 for Internet
Song Swaps
12/19/2004 03:11 PMA recording industry trade group said Thursday that it has filed
another wave of lawsuits against 754 people it suspects of
distributing songs over the Internet without permission. The Recording
Industry Association of America has now sued more than 7,000 people
for distributing its songs over "peer to peer" networks like
eDonkey and Kazaa, in an effort to discourage the online song copying
that it believes has cut into CD sales.
The RIAA typically settles copyright infringement suits for around
$5,000 each. Despite more than a year of headline-grabbing lawsuits,
peer-to-peer use has not declined. An average of 7.5 million users
were logged on to peer-to-peer networks in November 2004, up from 4.4
million in November 2003, according to the research firm BigChampagne.

Computer industry to entertainment
industry: we lied (right on!)
Computer industry to entertainment
industry: we lied (right on!)
09/22/2004 02:18 AM
Cory Doctorow:
This amazing open letter to the entertainment industry, signed by the
computer industry, is a nigh-perfect expression of what constitutes a
successful approach to Internet technology. And it made me laugh my
ass off.
We lied to you. In the golden 80s and 90s we told you micropayments
and content protection would work; that you would be able to charge
minuscule amounts of money whenever someone listened to your music or
watched your movie. We told you untruths which we well knew would
never work - after all, we would've never used them ourselves.
Instead, we wrote things like Kazaa and Gnutella, and all other evil
P2P applications to get the stuff free.
We told you these things so that you would finance the things we
really wanted to build, not the things that you wanted to be built. We
knew all along that DRM schemes do not work, and we knew that whatever
we create can be broken by us. We don't care anymore, because your
money made us bigger than you.
Look at us: every year, we churn out more computer games than your
entire industry is worth. You know how we do it? We like our
customers. We don't treat them like potential criminals, and try to
make our products do less. We invent new things like online
role-playing -games, where the money does not come from duplication of
bits (which cannot be stopped, regardless of your DRM scheme) but from
providing experiences that the people want.
We saw that you were old and weak. So we took advantage of it: told
you things that you wanted to hear so we could kick you in the head in
twenty years. Some of us told you that the future is going to be
interactive - what did you do? You started to think how to make
interactive movies (CD-I, anyone?), which is not what it really means,
while we wrote games and tried to understand the new mediums, not how
to bolt it on onto old things.
We lied to you. And we apologize for that, but it was for the greater
good. So we're not the least bit sorry.
Signed: The Computer Industry
