21.11.2006 Microsoft Moots 'Universal' MP3 Player Dock
The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) has established a working group to develop a universal docking standard for portable devices, the US-centric organisation announced this week. The move is being driven by Microsoft - at least, the software giant is the only company to be granted quotation space on the CEA press release, and there's a Microsoft staffer in the working group's chair. It's not hard to see why. Having failed to beat the iPod using proprietary technology - the Windows Media format - it's try to beat it using a sharper weapon: the open standard it defines.

Anti-spam firm MXSweep has reported that MP3-based pump-and-dump spam now accounts for up to 10 per cent of all spam sent. The penny stocks are being
promoted with MP3 voice messages with deceptive sounding names like santana.mp3, bspears.mp3 or coolringtone.mp3. The messages are much larger than
image spam and PDF spam, and can reach 147KB.
For the most part the message contents are empty with subject headers containing just Fwd: or
Re: or the name of the file attachment. File names have been categorised as emotional (dadsong.mp3, oursong.mp3, weddingsong.mp3), well-known artists
and songs (santana.mp3, sayyousayme.mp3, smashingpumpkins.mp3), or sounds that people might want to listen to (answeringmachine.mp3, coolringtone.mp3,

12.01.2006MP3 spam on the rise, despite being utterly stupid
As antispam tools and e-mail users become more sophisticated, spammers are turning to new mediums to get their unwelcome messages through filters and
into inboxes. One of the more recent developments is spam with attached MP3 files. One security software vendor,
MXSweep, is reporting that MP3 spam now accounts for between 7 and 10 percent of all spam being sent.
The
files are given innocuous-sounding names like elvis.mp3, oursong.mp3, smashingpumpkins.mp3, or coolringtone.mp3. The payload is disappointing: a voice
recording touting the virtues of some corporate stock; in other words, it's pump-and-dump stock spam in a new format. It's also a dumb idea. The
overlap of those gullible enough to click on MP3 files of unknown provenance and those willing and able to invest in a stock that they've never heard
of is certainly minute. It's bound to be more of an annoyance than anything else, and seems unlikely to result in the desired stock purchases.

listener's ear. "Campaigners say a safe listening level is below 85 decibels for 40 hours use a week, but some MP3 players play music at up to
120 decibels.

28.09.2009Microsoft releases MP3 Bing ring tones for your mobile
You may have read the title and thought this was a joke but I kid you not, Microsoft has released a pack of 3 ring tones where people say the word
bing in a rapid and alien-like fashion. The pack is available at Microsoft's download site. All 3 tones try to create a ring tone like sound but
the word bing repeated over and over is slightly alien-like. Bing is Microsoft's latest search engine which has some fairly amusing and catchy
adverts associated with it. The search site has come under fire this week, being branded as a "porn portal" by some for how easy it is to acquire
pornographic video.

26.02.2007Amazon MP3 to expand DRM-Free Music Store, Thanks to Sony
Amazon.com plans to make DRM-free MP3 music downloads from Sony BMG Music Entertainment available to customers on Amazon MP3 later this month, making
Amazon MP3 the only retailer to offer customers DRM-free MP3s from all four major music labels (in addition to over 33,000 independent labels).
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: "Finally, a real iTunes competitor". Amazon's DRM-free MP3 digital music store, where every
song is playable on virtually any digital music-capable device, prices songs from 89 cents to 99 cents.

11.01.2008Microsoft updates Bing to stop free porn
Microsoft has already updated its new search engine, Bing, to halt complaints from network administrators about the video clip preview feature. Built
into the search engine to give it the edge over its competitors, the feature allows users to search for videos, hovering over the video to get a small
preview of what the user can expect to see. This has upset a lot of network administrators who want to block sexual content from being watched in the
work place. Bing has been updated with stricter filter options that disable video previews, but as a temporary fix, Microsoft has released a string
of code for administrators to enforce the strictest search settings.

million songs from more than 270,000 artists. Amazon did not disclose a specific launch timeline for individual Amazon international websites. If you
ask me, Apple better go completely DRM-free quickly or iTunes will slowly begin to feel the wrath of a real competitor.
