  • Will Sonyâ•Žs Fourth Playstation Lead to a Second Sony V. Universal?
    WILL SONY’S FOURTH PLAYSTATION LEAD TO A SECOND SONY V. UNIVERSAL? † SETH ASCHER ABSTRACT Sony has included a “share” button on the next version of their popular PlayStation video game system. This feature is meant to allow players to record and share videos of their gameplay. This service shares similarities with the controversial “record” button that Sony included with its Betamax players over thirty years ago. The Betamax player was the subject of the landmark case Sony v. Universal, a foundational case for the modern application of copyright law to new technology. This Issue Brief examines how this “share” feature would fare under the framework laid out by Sony v. Universal and other evolutions in copyright law. INTRODUCTION On February 20, 2013, Sony announced their newest videogame system, predictably named the PlayStation 4.1 Chief among its new features is the share button displayed prominently on its controller.2 Microsoft’s newest offering also has a similar feature.3 Pressing the share button will allow a player to post images or videos of their gameplay to the internet, sharing them with their friends and complete strangers.4 The PlayStation 4 even buffers the last few minutes of gameplay so that a player can share their gameplay video after the fact.5 Sony’s intention is to provide an easy way for players to share images and videos online. Copyright © 2014 by Seth Ascher. † Duke University School of Law, J.D. 2014. 1 Video of the press announcement is available on numerous websites.

  • Videotape and Home Movie Day
    Videotape and Home Movie Day Incorporating video into a Home Movie Day event presents a host with technological and curatorial challenges. You’ll need to bring even more equipment including numerous decks, cables galore, and something to show tapes on, either a video projector or a large enough monitor. Since videotapes can go on for hours, you’ll need to set time limits in advance so no one person takes up more time than other attendees. But with a little planning you can easily be showing families’ histories recorded on tape alongside those on good ol’ small gauge film. Equipment Needs There is a daunting number of consumer-level videotape and optical video formats. But just as you can't expect to have a projector for every film format, you shouldn't expect to support every video format. In our experience, the most popular formats are VHS and Video8. DVD is also common format for people bringing in already-transferred home movies. You’ll need to balance your expectations of what video formats your particular audience will be bringing in with how much effort it will be to bring in a particular format. Other video formats to consider include, but are not limited to, Hi8, Digital8, Betamax, DV, SHS, and VHS-C. And don’t forget the difference between PAL, NTSC, and SECAM. Also, don’t forget to have enough cords and adapters to connect video decks to the monitor/projector. Depending on how many decks you are bringing to your HMD event, you might want to consider getting a video switcher.

  • VHS and VCR (Edited from Wikipedia)
    VHS And VCR (Edited from Wikipedia) SUMMARY A videocassette recorder, VCR, or video recorder is an electromechanical device that records analog audio and analog video from broadcast television or other source on a removable, magnetic tape videocassette, and can play back the recording. Use of a VCR to record a television program to play back at a more convenient time is commonly referred to as timeshifting. VCRs can also play back prerecorded tapes. In the 1980s and 1990s, prerecorded videotapes were widely available for purchase and rental, and blank tapes were sold to make recordings. Most domestic VCRs are equipped with a television broadcast receiver (tuner) for TV reception, and a programmable clock (timer) for unattended recording of a television channel from a start time to an end time specified by the user. These features began as simple mechanical counter-based single-event timers, but were later replaced by more flexible multiple-event digital clock timers. In later models the multiple timer events could be programmed through a menu interface displayed on the playback TV screen ("on-screen display" or OSD). This feature allowed several programs to be recorded at different times without further user intervention, and became a major selling point. The Video Home System (VHS) is a standard for consumer-level analog video recording on tape cassettes. Developed by Victor Company of Japan (JVC) in the early 1970s, it was released in Japan in late 1976 and in the United States in early 1977. From the 1950s, magnetic tape video recording became a major contributor to the television industry, via the first commercialized video tape recorders (VTRs).

  • The Expanding Role and Importance of Standards in the Information and Communications Technology Industry
    DEVELOPMENTS THE EXPANDING ROLE AND IMPORTANCE OF STANDARDS IN THE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY INDUSTRY Brad Biddle, Frank X. Curci, Timothy F. Haslach, Gary E. Marchant, Andrew Askland, and Lyn Gaudet* ABSTRACT: Standards play a particularly critical role in the information and com- munications technology (ICT) industry: they facilitate important interoperability goals. Standards development processes in the ICT industry are extraordinarily complex, and many aspects of these processes are not well understood. Inspired by discussions at a workshop that included leading practitioners, academics, and policymakers specializing in standards, the authors identify factors that explain both the growing importance and the growing complexity of standards in the ICT industry. The authors provide a frame- work for understanding how standards development efforts are structured, with a particular focus on the more informal specification development groups known as Consortia. The authors also explore two particular challenges in standard setting: the development of intellectual property policies that adequately balance different stake- holder interests, and the potential for ethical conflict issues. CITATION: Brad Biddle, Frank X. Curci, Timothy Haslach, Gary E.

WINTER 2012 177 Biddle et al. Standards adopted by various types of private and quasi-governmental standards-setting organizations (SSOs) play a critical and growing role in the development and commercialization of many technologies.1 No industry is more dependent upon and affected by such standards than the information and communications technology (ICT) industry, which encompasses computer, telecommunication, and personal entertainment technologies and products.

  • Betamax Bottom: VHS Alysia Derry-Chavez 29
    Derry-Chavez 1 Alysia Derry-Chavez 29 September 2013 Format Wars: How Social Change Effected How We Watch Movies at Home According to Judy Wajcman in her article Addressing Technological Change: The Challenge to Social Theory, “technological change is itself shaped by the social circumstance within which it takes place”. This is the belief of a theory known as STS or the social studies of science and technology, which was developed in the 1970s. Wajcman goes on to explain that the technological artifacts are socially shaped in their usage, design, and technical content and “will triumph over competitors because it is intrinsically the best”. Technologically is then a socio technical product that is “patterned by the conditions of its creation and use” Top: Betamax Bottom: VHS (Wajcman, 107). With this in mind, it is easy to see that this theory has been proven through several format wars that have taken place over the years. The Betamax, marketed by Sony, was one side of a format war that started in the late 1970s. Betamax competed against the VHS, or Video Home System, for consumer support. While the Betamax was technologically superior in most ways, including higher definition video quality, VHS ended up winning societies support. According to Brad Williams, Sony’s biggest mistake lied in their advertisements. Sony made sure to let the public know about Betamax’s technical superiority in their commercials. In one commercial from 1983 the viewer is given several details of the product including “high-writing speed”, “convenient front-loading”, and “programmability”. Afterwards the viewer is told they are speaking about the Sony Betamax.
