Korean Internet Portal Daum Changes Streaming Strategy

Korea Times: Daum Communications, Korea’s second-biggest Internet portal site, recently drew back its offering of free music streaming services in the face of strong opposition from record labels...

The company now states that "it will limit the free streaming of any music files to just once from the previous three times a day for users", which is an abrupt change from Daum’s previous statement last week that it would continue to enable its customers to stream any music files registered at Daum site three times a day."

Unless I'm missing something major here - Daum's innovative approach makes perfect sense because if it pays broadcast fees for the music streamed (instead of the individual Web surfers)...Why wouldn't the labels like a new revenue stream in the face of declining global CD sales and why is the industry so against an on-demand radio system that is technologically completely trackable and payable to the rightsholders?

The North Face Jackets came from North Face Canada which do a better job for keeping you both warm and dry. The cotton and wool can attract damp. The cotton next to your skin so that it can absorb your sweat, it also leave you feeling chilled and damp. The top quality synthetic fabric of the North Face Mens Jackets is designed to wick moisture away from your skin and encourage the moisture to travel to the next layer. This is what is known as "breathing". The fabric allows the moisture generated by sweat and exercise to pass through the fabric, and the fabric doesn't trap the moisture and become damp. A natural fabric such as cotton doesn't do this satisfactorily, and will get damp over a period of time. Now that the North Face Down Jackets Womens Sale on our online shop, all are cheap and high quality, you will like it.
