o Hollywood Guilds to Seek Larger
Residuals on Video iPod Content
Los Angeles - The unions representing Hollywood's actors,
writers and directors have indicated that they will seek
compensation for video content distributed on Apple's new video iPod
more in line with the pay-TV model, which would represent a larger
cut than what they receive on DVDs. "Make no mistake, that formula
(for DVDs, which significantly discounts the revenue streams upon
which the residual is based) is clearly not applicable in this
case," Writers Guild of America West President Patric Verrone told
The Hollywood Reporter. Alongside the introduction of the
video-playing iPod last week, Apple began selling music videos and
episodes of ABC TV shows like "Lost" and "Desperate Housewives" for
$1.99 on iTunes. The Hollywood guilds are uniformly unhappy with
their share of DVD revenues, and said in a statement that they plan
to argue for a larger share of revenue from the sale of video
through iTunes and other similar services. "As the representatives
for the creative community we embrace new technologies that expand
distribution of material featuring the work of our members," reads a
joint statement from the American Federation of Television and Radio
Artists (AFTRA), Directors Guild of America, Screen Actors Guild and
Writers Guild of America. "We have not yet heard from the
responsible employers of our members, but we look forward to a
dialogue that ensures that our members are properly compensated for
this exploitation of their work."

o Report:
Europeans Using Their Music Phones More Than Americans
San Francisco - Europeans who own cell phones equipped
with an MP3 player are four times more likely to use their phone to
listen to music than their American counterparts, according to a
report from market research firm Telephia. The survey found that 14%
of European wireless subscribers now own a music phone; of these,
36% listen to music on their music phones, while the same is true
for just 8% of Americans with music phones. "The advanced
infrastructure and the higher availability of music-capable devices
in Europe are key factors behind the bigger growth in adoption. The
U.S. market is still waiting for higher bandwidth networks that
would support faster full track music downloads," said Telephia vice
president Kanishka Agarwal. The study also tracked the most popular
music phone models, and found the Nokia 6230 leading among Europeans
with a 26.6% market share, followed by the Samsung SGH-D500 (11.5%),
Sony Ericsson K700 (9.6%), Nokia 6630 (7%) and Sony Ericsson K750
(3.7%). In the U.S. market, the Motorola V710 led with 22% of the
market, followed by the Motorola MPX200 (17%), Handspring Treo 650
(16.8%), Sony Ericsson Z500 (7.9%) and Sony Ericsson S700
(7.6%).
