DEUTSCHE TV-PLATTFORM: HYBRID TV - BETTER TV HBBTV AND MUCH, MUCH MORE Deutsche TV Platform (DTVP) was founded more than 25 years ago to introduce and develop digital media tech- nologies based on open standards. Consequently, DTVP was also involved in the introduction of HbbTV. When the HbbTV initiative started at the end of 2008, three of the four participating companies were members of the DTVP: IRT, Philips, SES Astra. Since then, HbbTV has played an important role in the work of DTVP. For example, DTVP did achieve the activation of HbbTV by default on TV sets in Germany; currently, HbbTV 2.0 is the subject of a ded- icated DTVP task force within the Working Group Smart Media. HbbTV is a perfect blueprint for the way DTVP works by promoting the exchange of information and opinions between market participants, stakeholders and social groups, coordinating their various interests. In addition, DTVP informs the public about technological develop- ments and the introduction of new standards.

An Introduction to Internet Radio
NB: This version was updated with new Internet Radio products on 26 October 2005 (see page 8). INTERNET RADIO AnInternet introduction to Radio Franc Kozamernik and Michael Mullane EBU This article – based on an EBU contribution to the WBU-TC Digital Radio Systems Handbook – introduces the concept of Internet Radio (IR) and provides some technical background. It gives examples of IR services now available in different countries and provides some guidance for traditional radio broadcasters on how to adapt to the rapidly changing multimedia environment. Traditionally, audio programmes have been available via dedicated terrestrial networks broad- casting to radio receivers. Typically, they have operated on AM and FM terrestrial platforms but, with the move to digital broadcasting, audio programmes are also available today via DAB, DRM and IBOC (e.g. HD Radio in the USA). However, this paradigm is about to change. Radio programmes are increasingly available not only from terrestrial networks but also from a large variety of satellite, cable and, indeed, telecommunications networks (e.g. fixed telephone lines, wire- less broadband connections and mobile phones). Very often, radio is added to digital television plat- forms (e.g. DVB-S and DVB-T). Radio receivers are no longer only dedicated hi-fi tuners or portable radios with whip aerials, but are now assuming the shape of various multimedia-enabled computer devices (e.g. desktops, notebooks, PDAs, “Internet” radios, etc.). These sea changes in radio technologies impact dramatically on the radio medium itself – the way it is produced, delivered, consumed and paid-for. Radio has become more than just audio – it can now contain associated metadata, synchronized slideshows and even short video clips. -

Auteursrecht Lust of Last
Auteursrecht, economische lust of last? Een empirische studie naar de economische aspecten van het auteursrecht in het Nederlandse multimediacluster In opdracht van het Ministerie van Economische Zaken Eindrapportage Dialogic, Utrecht en SEO, Amsterdam September 2003 Auteurs: Dr. Rudi Bekkers, Dialogic Dr. Barbara Baarsma, SEO Drs. Rob Bilderbeek, Dialogic Drs. Sven Maltha, Dialogic Drs. Hilde de Groot, Dialogic Drs. Rens Vandeberg, Dialogic Drs. Natasja Brouwer, SEO Drs. José Mulder, SEO Managementsamenvatting 1. Bij auteursrecht gaat het om het uitsluitend recht van de maker van een werk van letterkunde, wetenschap of kunst, of van diens rechtsverkrijgenden, om dit openbaar te maken en te verveelvoudigen, behoudens de beperkingen die bij de wet worden gesteld. ‘Waarom zou de overheid zich bemoeien met de bescherming van de maker?’ kan men zich vanuit economisch oogpunt afvragen. Auteursrecht heeft betrekking op het economisch goed informatie. Zonder auteursrecht zou er sprake zijn van marktfalen, waardoor marktwerking niet leidt tot sociale efficiëntie. Bij het gebruik en/of de productie van het goed informatie treden de volgende drie vormen van marktfalen op: (1) externe effecten (2) publieke goederen en (3) informatieasymmetrie. 2. Auteursrecht leidt in wezen tot een nieuwe vorm van marktfalen, namelijk een wettelijk monopolie. De auteursrechthebbende is in feite een soort ‘monopolist’ betreffende zijn werk, omdat hij of zij immers het voor de rechter afdwingbare recht krijgt om anderen te verbie den gebruik te maken van zijn/haar werk als hij of zij daarvoor geen toestemming heeft verleend. Het gaat hierbij om een afweging tussen de belangen van rechthebbenden en gebruikers ; ofwel vanuit economisch perspectief het zoeken naar een balans tussen het monopolie dat via een te hoge prijszetting kan leiden tot onderbenutting enerzijds en (bij het ontbreken van het monopolie) de drie vormen van marktfalen die aanleiding kunnen geven tot onderproductie anderzijds. -
