p2pnet news view | P2P | Music:- Thirty-year music industry veteran Ted Cohen (right) once told a Hong Kong audience music “as a product” was dead. The future of music was service-based, he said, and at the time, “senior executives at EMI were outraged by my perspective”.

Blank TV screens instead of programs?

p2pnet news view Politics | TV:- In the weeks leading to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission hearing on broadcasting licences, Canadians were inundated with splashy advertising campaigns claiming that new fees for local signals were either a TV tax or would save local television.  With all of the major broadcasters and cable companies appearing before the commission, the fee-for-carriage (or value-for-signal) issue unsurprisingly took centre stage at last week’s hearing. Yet those convinced that the broadcaster plan was limited to a new fee were in for a rude awakening.  Fee-for-carriage is only part of the story, as broadcasters are also seeking to block U.S. signals, leave some Canadian communities without over-the-air television, and delay the transition to digital television transmission until 2013

The Beatles: 21st century holdouts

Posted in filesharing on November 9th, 2009 by admin – Comments Off

p2pnet news view | P2P | Music:- Why, after “so many years into the era of digital music” do the Beatles still not allow digital downloads of their songs? The question comes in a Wall Street Journal item which says, “The Beatles and their heirs have refused to make their songs available on the Apple iPod or other devices.” Given that Paul McCartney, the only surviving Beatle to have maintained any kind of profile on or offline, is among other antique rockers such as Cliff Richard (right) who want rights extended to 700 years , or so, it’s hardly surprising Beatles tunes aren’t on the handful of Big Music supplied sites which are trying to peddle the same thing to the same people at the same rip-off prices. “For two days last week, it seemed that the last holdouts had relented, making their music available digitally,” says the story
