Intertrust - an article, & my opinion. Like I wrote before here sharing music via Bluetooth will be first and maybe the last very profitable wireless multimedia business in market. If you ever seen how schoolkids love to play with walkmans and cellphones You understand who explosive combination this will be. Keep on posting stockideas here! Folks. I've just been studying Intertrust, which offers copyrigt (with Napster in future) and file sharing algorithms! It's really inthe hot spot in this new era music industry. public.wsj.com "The judgment shows that what Napster did wrong was infringe copyrights," Mr. Vangarde said in a telephone interview from Santa Clara, Calif., where he was discussing a new, digital royalties management project with InterTrust Technologies Corp. "It's not against the technology," said Mr. Vangarde, referring to the U.S. judgment, "it's against letting people use the technology without asking the permission" of copyright owners. German media giant Bertelsmann AG, which has joined Napster in an attempt to develop a fee-paying business model, said Tuesday it eventually expects free music exchanges to disappear from the Internet. Bertelsmann has promised much-needed capital if Napster switches to a subscription-based service that pays artists' royalties. In a statement Monday, Bertelsmann said, "Today's decision is another step in the process of accommodating the legitimate rights of copyright holders and the important interests of Napster users." "Bertelsmann is committed to implementing a win-win strategy, one that secures and compensates the rights of artists, copyrights holders and the music industry while also enabling Napster to provide music lovers with a first-class file-sharing system."
