Musikdownloads legal - bsp. Napster - 500 Beiträge pro Seite

[DiskusTobi]

Hallo zusammen,
was haltet hier von der Roxio Aktie WKN 579269.
U.a. bietet Roxio mit Napster ein legales Musikdownloadportal an. In Amerika ist dies bereits seit letzten Herbst online und brachte Roxio im letzten Quartal $ 3,5 Mio. ein.
Wie stehen die Chancen für die Aktie wenn Napster auch wieder in Deutschland aktiv wird?

Viele Grüße
Tobi

Mal sehen wie sich das Napster-Geschäft entwickelt... Meiner Meinung nach sollte das gut gehen...

...nur der Umsatz ist halt ein bisserle dünn

[Alechandro]

Servus DiskusTobi,

ich weiss nicht Recht ob diese Idee, die nicht schlecht ist, funzt. Solange es noch Musikdownloadportale wie Kazaa u. Emule Musik umsonst anbietet, wird Roxio keine grossen Sprünge im Umsatz verbuchen können. Wie sind die Konditionen bei Roxio, höchstwahrscheinlich überteuert, dafür dass man es selber aus dem Net downloadet muss selber brennen etc. Wieviel verlangen die für einen Download aus der Toplist?? 2€ - 3€, da bist du schnell zig euro los, wenn du dort downloads. Ich bleib weiterhin, wie hundert Millionen andere auch, bei Kazaa und Emule.

ciao alechandro

[DiskusTobi]

Servus Alechandro,

da hast du schon recht. Doch wird nicht immer stärker gegen illegale Downloads vorgegangen?
Kaazaa ist doch in letzter Zeit echt sch..., oder? Ständig bekommt man irgendwelche sch... Remix, oder defekte Lieder oder Endlosschleifen...
Bei Napster kostet das Lied momentan $ 0,99, warscheinlich dann 0,99 € in Deutschland.
Das zahl ich lieber als mir ein Lied bei Kaazaa manchmal 6 mal runterladen zu müssen weil es defekt ist oder...
Ein Album beim Händler zu kaufen find ich auch doof. Das ksotet dann auch etwa 20€ und mir gefallen dann doch nur 3 Lieder Letztendlich wird sich Napster durchsetzten.
Hoffe ich doch

@janolo: Die geringen Umsätze fidne ich ganz gut. Ich hoffe ja schließlich auf den "Napster-Boom" und wenn schon 50 Mio. umgesetzt werden würden, würde dass nicht mehr stark zu Buche schlagen, oder?

Mal sehen wie sich das Papier entwickelt.
Viele Grüße

[Alechandro]

0,99€ ist natürlich nicht viel - bei Kazaa hatte ich bis jetzt keine Probleme mit der Qualität dessen was runtergeladen werden kann , es läuft dahin hinaus, dass der Staat od. es gar nicht überprüfen kann und jeden einzelnen zur Strecke zu bringen. Falls Kazaa u. die anderen verboten werden kommen neue Downloadportale, aber wenn Kazaa verboten ist, kauf ich mir die Roxio Aktie

ciao alechandro

[DiskusTobi]

Du hast schon recht, dass die Akzeptanz fehlen wird für etwas, dass bisher umsonst war Geld zu zahlen... Darin sehe ich auch das größte Problem...

PS: Hat Roxio noch die Klage am Hals??

Napster-Betreiber Roxio wird verklagt

Der Betreiber des Internet-Musik-Download-Dienstes Napster 2.0, Roxio, wurde laut einer Pressemitteilung vom gestrigen Montagabend von Optima Technology verklagt. Roxio habe mit seiner CD-Brenner-Software die Patente von Optima verletzt, hieß es. Im Jahr 1995 hatte Optima eine Technologie entwickelt, die das Brennen von Fotos, Musik, Video und Daten auf beschreibbare CDs ermöglicht.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec 16, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Roxio (ROXI) , The Digital Media Company(R), today responded to Optima Technology`s allegations of patent infringement.

We are aware of the Optima `531 patent and the claims within and believe that any claim of infringement by Roxio`s software products is utterly without merit. At Roxio, we respect the legitimate intellectual property rights of others but in this instance there is no colorable argument that the claims set forth in the patent read on any Roxio products. We intend to aggressively defend ourselves in this litigation.

@Alechandro: Ich habe bisher noch nichts gegenteiliges gehört...

Aber:

"After reviewing hundreds of companies and technologies, DEMO has selected Roxio as one of the chosen few we see igniting the technology landscape and helping to turn the markets around," said Chris Shipley, Executive Producer, DEMO.

In its 14-year history, DEMO has helped over 1000 companies launch new products and services. With its unrivaled reputation for attracting and introducing technology``s A-List, such as the 3Com``s Palm Pilot and Sun``s famous Java programming language, DEMO has become a priority event for the best and brightest technology executives, media, and investors all of whom expect DEMO to provide a glimpse into the technology landscape for the coming year.

"We are extremely pleased that our efforts have been recognized by DEMO," said Tom Shea, President of Roxio. "Our next generation digital media suite is the result of a long-term company vision that we firmly believe will capture the imagination of the industry and, more importantly, consumers."

Napster nimmt Kurs auf Europa

Von Dietmar Müller

16. Januar 2004, 18:25 Uhr

Erste Führungskraft auf dem Alten Kontinent wird Leanne Sharman
Napster, mittlerweile ein Geschäftsbereich von Roxio, hat Leanne Sharman zum Vice President of Business Development ernannt. Sharman ist in Europa die erste Napster-Führungskraft und verantwortet von London aus die Geschicke des Online-Musikdienstes. Sie ist dem Vice President Worldwide Business Development Brad Duea in Los Angeles unterstellt, der direkt an den Napster- und Roxio-CEO Chris Gorog berichtet.
Bevor sie zu Napster kam, war Sharman im Bereich Sales und Marketing bei MP3.com Europe tätig, wo sie die Entwicklung und Einführung der europäischen Promotion-Plattform für Consumer-Marken und die Musikindustrie verantwortete. Ihre Aufgaben umfassten Umsatzgenerierung, die Leitung der europäischen Vertriebsteams und Agenturen, die Entwicklung kreativer Einnahmequellen im Online- und Offline-Bereich sowie die strategische Kooperation mit Künstlern und Consumer-Marken wie Reebok und X-Box. Zielgruppe waren acht Millionen MP3-Musikfans. Vor ihrer Zeit bei MP3.com war Leanne Sharman drei Jahre lang Head of Marketing and Sponsorship bei Fox Kids Europe. Davor war sie bei Disney in Paris beschäftigt, wo sie am Launch des lokalen Senders beteiligt war.

[DiskusTobi]

heise online 16.01.2004:

Napster 2.0 möglicherweise bald auch in Europa

Wie CD/DVD-Brennspezialist Roxio am gestrigen Donnerstag mitteilte, hat das Unternehmen Leanne Sharman (ehemals MP3.com Europe) zur Vizepräsidentin für "Business Development" ernannt. Sie soll von London aus die europäische Einführung des Online-Musikdienstes Napster 2.0 koordinieren. Obwohl Roxio bereits beim US-Start seiner legalen Download-Plattform andeutete, früher oder später auch in Europa an den Start zu gehen, ist Sharmans Ernennung der erste deutliche Schritt in Richtung Europa.

Nach Apple, das seinen iTunes Music Store im Laufe des Jahres nach Europa bringen will, ist Napster der zweite große Anbieter von Online-Musik, der nach erfolgreichem Start in den USA auf dem alten Kontinent Fuß fassen will.

Ob auch Sony nachziehen wird, ist bislang unklar. Der japanische Elektronikriese kündigte auf der Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas lediglich den US-Start seines eigenen Musikdienstes "Connect" an. (vza/c`t)

Dort sitzt auch schon Napsters Chief Creative Officer Glenn Kaino. Roxios früheres Stammgeschäft mit Brennsoftware für PCs und Macs hat seinen Sitz in Santa Clara und steht wie gehabt unter der Ägide von Tom Shea. (tc)

Roxio gains on MSFT report SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- Roxio shares gained nearly 9 percent Wednesday after a story in the New York Post`s online edition said Microsoft has been "quietly shifting some of its marketing muscle" to Roxio`s Napster digital music service. By Mike Tarsala, CBS.MarketWatch.com Feb. 25, 2004


Microsoft has remained neutral, supporting many digital music players and online music stores. But the continued success of iTunes "may prompt Microsoft to abandon its practiced neutrality," the Post said, noting that Microsoft has given prominent placement to Napster on its Media Center personal computers. Napster is one of only two companies to have a branded version of Microsoft`s digital-music player software.

Roxio shares (ROXI: news, chart, profile) rose 30 cents to close at $3.84 in regular-session Nasdaq trading. The stock had risen as much as 12 percent to an intraday high of $3.98.

Many analysts still have competitive concerns about Roxio. The company recently lost a potential deal to market Napster with computer maker Hewlett-Packard. Apple (AAPL: news, chart, profile) won the business partly because it offered to bundle iTunes with computers, and also sell H-P-branded (HPQ: news, chart, profile) iPod digital music players.

Still, B. Riley & Co. analysts upgraded Roxio`s stock earlier this week to "neutral" from "sell," based on its stock price.

Before Wednesday`s run, Roxio shares had been trading at less than one times Roxio`s total fiscal 2005 revenue. The 25 largest software companies trade at about four times their revenue estimates for the end of 2004, on average.

Analysts polled by Thomson First Call project that Roxio will continue to lose money in calendar 2004, posting a loss of about $1.02 a share in its fiscal year ending March 2005.

Roxio`s British Invasion Is a Big Hit

By Bill Snyder
TheStreet.com Staff Reporter

Click here for more stories by Bill Snyder


Roxio (ROXI:Nasdaq - news - research) , the company that now runs Napster, continued its upward climb Wednesday, soaring more than 10% on news that it will bring the digital music service to the U.K. this summer.

The move, announced in the U.K. by Roxio CEO Chris Gorog, had been rumored for some time. Still, Roxio shares jumped 39 cents, or 10.5%, to $4.11 in heavy volume Wednesday.


Last week the company gained 9% on a New York Post report that Microsoft (MSFT:Nasdaq - news - research) has been "quietly shifting some of its marketing muscle" to Roxio.

First Albany analyst Paul Tryon likes the stock long term, citing the company`s expertise in digital music and a solid relationship with Microsoft. Tryon, however, has a neutral rating on the stock because the Santa Clara, Calif., company is still burning cash.

Roxio`s net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2004 was $18.8 million, compared with $26.4 million in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Roxio`s reported net loss for the third quarter was $25.6 million, or 92 cents a share, compared with a net loss of $9.2 million, or 47 cents per share in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Tryon said the company`s software business should be profitable on an operating basis in the fourth quarter and through fiscal 2005, but online music will not be profitable in the near future. (First Albany does not have a banking relationship with Roxio.)

Microsoft, meanwhile, may have suffered a major setback on the digital music and antitrust fronts. According to the Associated Press, the European Union wants to force the software giant to offer computer makers a version of Windows without any multimedia program to give rival companies a better shot at getting their products on consumers` desktops.

European regulators fear that the market for digital music could be dominated by Microsoft, whose Windows Operating System contains a media player, in much the same way Microsoft crushed Netscape by making a Web browser part of Windows.

Microsoft has been negotiating with European regulators for some time in an effort to avoid a time-consuming and expensive legal battle similar to the one it waged in the U.S. during the Clinton administration. Microsoft shares dipped 2 cents, or 0.1%, to $26.37 Wednesday.

Please note that due to factors including low market capitalization and/or insufficient public float, we consider Roxio to be a small-cap stock. You should be aware that such stocks are subject to more risk than stocks of larger companies, including greater volatility, lower liquidity and less publicly available information, and that postings such as this one can have an effect on their stock prices.

Napster sets UK debut, rest of Europe in limbo
Thursday March 4, 9:26 am ET
By Bernhard Warner, European Internet Correspondent


LONDON, March 4 (Reuters) - Napster is set to launch music download services in the UK by the end of the summer, but fans elsewhere in Europe face a long wait as bureaucracy and complex licence deals fuel delays, industry officials and analysts said.
ADVERTISEMENT


Music fans and record companies are increasingly eager for Napster and Apple Computer Inc`s (NasdaqNM:AAPL - News) iTunes to open Internet music stores in Western Europe -- a debut the industry sees as crucial if it is to torpedo online song piracy.

But those buoyant hopes have been effectively dashed by Europe`s notoriously sticky red tape and language gaps.

A maze of licensing contracts, differing release dates for new music and incompatible billing systems means a pan-European version of Napster or iTunes could be a long way off.

"It`s just a huge logistical task," Napster UK spokesman Adam Howorth said on Thursday. The company announced its planned UK launch the day before.

In Spain, Italy and other southern European countries, music fans may have to wait until 2005 at the earliest to sample the online download services, Jupiter Research analyst Mark Mulligan said.

"It doesn`t make a lot of sense to focus on anything but a few key Northern European territories at the moment," Mulligan said.

Britain`s OD2 has launched a series of music download stores across Western Europe over the past three years.

But because of the complexity of European music licensing agreements, not all songs on the OD2 services can be downloaded to a PC hard drive and fewer still can be transferred to a portable music device, Mulligan said.

LEGAL MORASS

The launch of iTunes and Napster in the United States last year was seen as a landmark introduction for the piracy-battered music industry because consumers for the first time could pay for song downloads with minimal restrictions.

Officials from Apple and Napster, owned by U.S. software company Roxio (NasdaqNM:ROXI - News), have been scrambling to secure similar European licensing arrangements with little to show for their efforts. Both companies say the process has taken longer than expected in Europe.

Apple, meanwhile, has not given any indication for its debut plans on this side of the Atlantic, leading some industry observers to predict it may not happen until well into the second half of 2004. Despite the legal morass, some of the major labels are continuing to digitise their music libraries, to make more of their songs available for European download services, and are signing contracts with new download services.

Universal Music (Paris:EAUG.PA - News), the world`s largest music label, said on Wednesday it had converted 300,000 songs -- by artists from Eminem to 50 Cent -- into digital form for resale in downloaded form.

The number-three label, EMI (London:EMI.L - News), home to Norah Jones and Coldplay, confirmed on Wednesday it would make much of its music catalogue available to London-based download service Wippit.

Despite the flurry of activity, however, many of Europe`s music fans will be unable to buy permanent downloads of some of their favourite songs anytime soon.

"I don`t see any of this as progress," Mulligan said. "In the cold light of day there isn`t much different from last year. We`re still in the same position."

Napster, IBM unveil new music delivery system
Wednesday March 10, 12:01 am ET


LOS ANGELES, Mar 10 (Reuters) - Online music service Napster on Wednesday unveiled an application using IBM technology to help universities and other customers save computing bandwidth and money.
Napster, owned by digital media company Roxio Inc. (NasdaqNM:ROXI - News), said its new "Super Peer" application uses International Business Machine Corp.`s (NYSE:IBM - News) eServer BladeCenter systems to store popular songs from Napster in on-site servers rather than from the Internet.

ADVERTISEMENT


The most popular tracks in the Napster system are stored locally, enabling customers like The University of Rochester and Penn State University, to reduce their computing infrastructure`s vulnerability to overuse.

"When we embarked on our industry-leading university program, we set out to alleviate the technical and business strains that illegal file-sharing puts on Universities and ISPs," said Bill Pence, Napster`s chief technology officer.

Pence said Napster daily usage at Penn State for instance totals about 100,000 downloads and 100,000 streams.

With the new application, about 90 percent of these downloads and streams would not result in traffic across the open Internet, saving the university an estimated $50,000 in bandwidth fees in the first year.

"Helping customers securely and easily access authorized digital content is paramount to the future of the media and entertainment industry," said Steve Canepa, vice president, IBM Global Media and Entertainment Industry.

Warren Hart, vice president of digital media solutions for IBM, said that IBM was focusing largely on digital media.

"We`re working with a number of leaders globally in this space. This whole area of how to take rich media and use it for real business value is very critical for us," he said.
