Netflix unlimited streaming – $7.99/month – hello music labels???

December 10, 2010

in Marketing,Media,Technology

I had one of those “convergence of thoughts” reminders the other day. In the content and tech business sectors it has recently been impossible to go a day without a story on Netflix – further evidence this morning – a WSJ story on Netflix being added to the S&P 500 (kicking out the NYTimes and [...]

November 18, 2010

in Media,Technology

I read a local Miami story earlier this week that Charlie Crist, outgoing Governor of Florida was wrapping up his final responsibilities before vacating his office. It was anticipated that one of those responsibilities would include a full pardon of Jim Morrison, the late, lead singer of The Doors, for charges stemming from a March [...]

Ironman stumbles…

October 29, 2010

in Application Development,Marketing,Media,Sports,Technology

Interesting times for the World Triathlon Corporation, owners of the Ironman brand. As 1) a repeat Ironman competitor myself, at both full (140.6) and 70.3 distances, 2) a professional who works with brands everyday and 3) respects the Ironman brand… although I don’t have it tattooed on me… it’s intriguing to watch the stumbles made [...]

Looking back – looking ahead

July 2, 2010

in Application Development,Marketing,Media,Sports,Technology

Looking back I seldom look back on a week, preferring to always look ahead to the next week. Even rarer are the occasions when I would allow the occurrences to coalesce into a posting, but in the technology world, a lot has happened – one event was substantial in scale, others… smaller but portending the [...]

iPad And The Art Of Massage

March 31, 2010

in Media,Technology

As the days and hours count down to the launch date of Apple’s iPad, there is no end to the forecasts on pre-launch, Q2, and 2010 sales etc. of the device. Speculation aside, there is a palpable excitement and anticipation which finds its precedent only in the June 2007 launch of the iPhone. I’m not [...]

Why Comcast/NBCU will put one in the media merger success column

December 4, 2009

in Media,Technology

Lots of blogging about the lackluster track record of media mergers in the wake of the official announcement of the Comcast/NBC Universal deal. My POV differs from that of Michael Wolff’s assessment on Newser, although I’ve ordered The Curse Of The Mogul cited in his blog. This is a merger that will work, and will redefine [...]

Mining the archives – Audio

October 7, 2009

in Media,Technology

A couple of years ago I spent some time digitizing some of my production work. Most of it is on a mix of source formats, 1/4 inch analog tape, DAT, CD, and even a few reference copies on cassette. For anyone who has undertaken format conversion, I feel your pain. While ultimately rewarding, it’s a time [...]
