From my Schwab alert news. Jeff << Internet Daily for Tuesday, July 06, 1999 EDITOR'S NOTE: Internet Daily, normally written by CBS MarketWatch, will be compiled by the InfoBeat Editorial Staff until July 19, 1999. ** Consumers slow to adopt digital music Despite its hold on the popular media and the recording industry, digital music distribution will not emerge as a mainstream consumer technology until it overcomes major obstacles, according to a new report from Jupiter Communications. The Jupiter research showed that only three percent of online consumers will purchase downloaded digital music by 2003. According to the Jupiter research, MP3 will continue to dominate the digital music landscape through 2000, even as makers of hardware and software add support for closed technologies backed by major record labels. "The music industry is beginning to come to terms with the MP3 phenomenon, which has been at once overhyped and underappreciated," said Lucas Graves, an analyst in Jupiter's Web Technology Strategies. "However, the music industry's best efforts still fall short when it comes to preparing for the day when digital music distribution is commonplace. Companies that focus on strict security measures rather than maximizing the value proposition will lose out." >>

What's the deal with Walter? Every time I check this board, I see new complaints about Walter. Yet, when I look to see what all the ruckus is about, all I find is interesting and helpful posts from Walter! It seems to me that the squawkers are doing more harm to EDIG than Walter could do even if he wanted to! His critics' agitated gabbling gives the impression that EDIG is being held primarily by a clutch of nervous hens who think that raising questions about EDIG will somehow bring down their henhouse. If you squeakers want to save EDIG from what you consider to be FUD, show some confidence! (Angry braying is not a sign of confidence.) I am a long-time long in EDIG, by the way, and I welcome Walter's friendly little provocations. His latest effort, the question about what an investor should do if some company announces an EPAC player that does not use MicroOs, is a good question. A serious and knowledgeable EDIG investor will have no problems with that question, but I can understand how that same question might unhinge a hanger-on who has little grasp of the pertinent factors involved in maintaining a position in EDIG. ig
