mirando las novedades en tecnologia encontre esto en un pagina de musica electronica y me meti en la new scientist tech web para leer la nota completa... Cita: Wi-Fi music polling device takes heat off the DJ
Ever had a party ruined by your host's atrocious taste in music? Then you might welcome a system that polls the musical preferences of party-goers and creates a playlist to keep everyone happy.
Developed by computer scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, US, the Smart Party system relies on people carrying Wi-Fi-enabled music-playing devices.
Software running on each device beams each user's playlist to a nearby computer, which is connected to an amp and speakers.
The computer takes a poll of titles to work out the most popular genre and can also copy and play tracks from each device. It can then play music from the most popular overall music genre or tracks supplied by each party-goer in turn.
| en si... lo que dice este articulo es que cientificos de la Universidad de California desarrollaron un computador (llamado Smart Party Time) conectado a un sistema de Wi Fi y a un amplificador de sonido que capta de otras computadoras, celulares, mp3 que tambien estan conectadas por este sistema y toma los titulos de los temas de los generos mas populares y tambien copia y reproduce tracks de otros equipos.
ahora... es esto legal?? Cita: Licensed to rock?
There is just one thorny problem with the scheme – digital rights management (DRM). This is because the central PC temporarily copies tracks from each device before playing them, which may be deemed a copyright infringement.
"We could deal with content that has no DRM issues – free content – but that's not a very realistic scenario," Eustice says. "So we may need to figure out ways for the mobile device to temporarily and securely transfer its licence to play the music to the computer."
DRM aside, Eustice concedes that mischievous types could subvert the system for their own amusement.
"There are in fact a number of things you could do that are not so friendly," he says. "Instead of storing a playlist you like for the ballot, you could vote against the musical interests of others by storing tracks you know they don't like."
| se habla de los DRM, que serian las licencias para tener esa musica. estan buscando la manera de que el computador pueda transferir, junto con la musica, la licencia para reproducir los tracks.
me parecio algo interesante, aunq hasta q no encuentren una solucion con respecto a las licencias... se les va a complicar meter el producto en el mercado...
