FCC Approves TiVoToGo

FCC Approves TiVoToGo 08/05/2004 08:45 AM

Although public policy isn't really our niche, there are occasional bits of regulation that are notable for the future products they herald, like the approval yesterday by the FCC of a plan by TiVo to allow sharing of recorded content to up to 10 other users via a new service called TiVoToGo. The first implementations will probably be local network -- sending to other TiVos and PCs around your house -- but there's certainly the possibility that sharing over the internet could be implemented, as well.

Unless the approval gets shut down by the numerous groups protesting the approval -- something not as likely as I at first thought, as at least nine other DRM-encumbered sharing schemes were approved in addition to TiVos, creating sort of an insta-lobby -- we probably won't pay this too much mind until products using the TiVoToGo service are implemented. But we thought you might at least like to know it's coming.

Senate approves PIRATE act

Senate approves PIRATE act 06/26/2004 02:42 AM
Today, the U.S. Senate approved a proposal that will give federal prosecutors the power to file civil lawsuits against suspected copyright infringers -- penalties include fines up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The so-called Pirate Act has raised alarms among copyright lawyers and lobbyists for peer-to-peer companies, who have been eyeing the recording industry's lawsuits against thousands of peer-to-peer users with trepidation. They worry that the Department of Justice could be even more ambitious.

Senate leaders scheduled Friday's vote under a procedure that required the unanimous consent of all members present. Now the Pirate Act, along with a related bill that criminalizes using camcorders in movie theaters, will be forwarded to the House of Representatives for approval.

FCC Approves Broadcast Flag

FCC Approves Broadcast Flag 11/04/2003 07:06 PM
As was very much expected, the FCC ignored plenty of reasons why this is a terrible idea and has approved the "broadcast flag" for digital TV programs. All digital TV receivers will need to recognize this flag, meaning that people will (a) need to buy new equipment and (b) lose plenty of fair use rights. Note that it will do nothing to stop "piracy" as the industry claims. It's unclear from the quick Associated Press version of the article how the broadcast flag is going to be implemented (that is, who is going to set it up and approve it), but I'm sure that information will come out shortly. Anyway, here we have another political decision that will do nothing to solve an actual problem, but will make most people worse off.

IEEE Approves Most Recent 802.16

IEEE Approves Most Recent 802.16 06/28/2004 12:59 PM
">The IEEE ratified the 802.16-2004 standard, marking a milestone in the development of the standard: Still, there's a long way to go. This article doesn't draw the distinction between 802.16 and WiMax. Now that the IEEE has ratified what had been called 802.16d, the WiMax Forum must still release its final specification for WiMax, which will be essentially a subset of the larger standard. Products built to the WiMax specification that get approved by the WiMax Forum can be assured to be interoperable with other WiMax gear. The IEEE ratification is an exciting milestone but the reality of a WiMax market in the United States is much farther in the future than some writers and industry followers acknowledge. This article notes that WiMax approved equipment should be available early next year. That's true, but basically all manufacturers will build their first generation products to operate in frequencies used overseas, not in the United States. It also remains to be seen how the final specifications--802.16 and WiMax--will affect folks like Alvarion. Alvarion is offering products today that it promises to upgrade to meet the final WiMax specification without additional cost to customers. Glenn described the whole process a couple weeks ago. One additional thought on Alvarion's decision to offer free upgrades is that they've taken a bit of a risk here but didn't have much of a choice. Some analysts have told me that some vendors are feeling a bit of a squeeze as potential customers are deciding to wait for certified WiMax equipment. In the meantime, the vendors aren't selling any gear. So Alvarion took the risk that they could make a reasonable guess at what the final specification would look like. They're hoping that they are close enough that they don't have to make major, expensive upgrades in the future to make the products WiMax compatible....

DVD Forum Approves DualDisc

DVD Forum Approves DualDisc 06/14/2004 01:13 PM

The approval of the DualDisc audio standard by the DVD Forum could open up some potentially interesting options for not only DVD-Audio but plain ol' DVD-Video, as well. The DualDisc format basically glues a standard audio CD onto the back of a DVD, allowing the DVD to be played in both DVD-Audio and regular CD players. But there's nothing that says the DVD side has to be audio -- the single-layer DVD could instead have a video, like say live concert footage, while the CD side has the live album. The options abound, I say.
