Microsoft sells Expression Media to Phase One
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft said on Tuesday it has unloaded
| its Expression Media photo catalog product,
| selling it to medium-format digital camera
| maker Phase One.
|
| [...]
|
| Microsoft said the deal was arranged by
| Microsoft's IP Ventures unit, which
| licenses or sells technology that Microsoft
| decides is no longer strategic.

Microsoft Encarta died - why? And will its contents be lost?
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft has recently announced that its beloved encyclopaedia, Microsoft
| Encarta, will soon be discontinued. After October 31, 2009 its contents will
| no longer be available. Both the online version and the CD ROM version will
| be discontinued.
|
| My first reaction was âwhat a pityâ. My job is to gather and publish good
| contents. I know how much work goes into creating and publishing material.
| This news must have been quite hard to digest for people who have been
| working on Encarta for a while. The two main questions that come to mind,
| however, are: âWhy?â, and more importantly, âWhat about the contents?â

MSN Music Debacle Highlights EULA Dangers
,----[ Quote ]
| MSN Musicâs EULA is a case in point. When active, MSN Music's webpage touted
| that customers could âchoose their device and know its going to workâ.
|
| But when customers went to purchase songs, they were shown legalese that
| stated the download service and the content provided were sold without
| warrantee. In other words, Microsoft doesn't promise you that the service or
| the music will work, or that you will always have access to music you bought.
| The flashy advertising promised your music, your way, but the fine print
| said, our way or the highway.

When DRM detonates your music collection
,----[ Quote ]
| It is all down to the digital rights management (DRM) software that Microsoft
| has embedded in all its music downloads to combat illegal file-sharing. For
| DRM to work it needs a central computer to keep a live record of who has
| registered which songs to which computers. The problem is that the main
| server is now being turned off as the company wants to sell downloads with a
| new type of DRM. How odd that the old system was marketed as PlaysForSure.
