President Kennedy Denies Commerce Commission Claims
ALT TV President, David Kennedy, denies claims by the Commerce Commission that ALT TV has a small audience.
A spokeswoman for the Commerce Commission said ALT TV would not be taken to court for charging 99 cents for text messages. In the Commission’s opinion the station had few viewers and the number of people who took part in the competition was small.
“There’s nothing small about ALT TV, the only thing small is the one complaint we received”, said President Kennedy. “Our latest AC Nielson survey figures show that ALT TV already has 200,000 viewers per month - that’s 5% of the TV viewing population, and only one of those people made a complaint about the text messaging”, he says. President Kennerdy added: “Ask not what your TV station can do for you, but what you can do for your TV station”.

Chili Peppers sue ex-X-Files star’s new show
The Red Hot Chili Peppers are suing Showtime over the name of the series “Californication,” which is also the name of the band’s 1999 album and a single.Lawsuit alleges unfair competition, dilution of the value of the name and unjust enrichment, claiming the title is “inherently distinctive, famous … and immediately associated in the mind of the consumer” with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
“Californication is the signature CD, video and song of the band’s career, and for some TV show to come along and steal our identity is not right,” lead singer Anthony Kiedis said in a statement.
The series stars David Duchovny as a novelist suffering from writers’ block and a midlife crisis.
Who else is laughing at the music industry?
Warner Music Group–a company that originally took Apple and its iTunes service to task for not allowing it to sell music at a premium–has changed its entire outlook on the music downloading business and has praised Apple for knowing what is best for everyone involved.
“You need to look no further than Apple’s iPhone to see how fast brilliantly written software presented on a beautifully designed device with a spectacular user interface will throw all the accepted notions about pricing, billing platforms and brand loyalty right out the window.
And let me remind you, the genesis of the iPhone is the iPod and iTunes–a music device and music service that consumers love,” Warner Music Group’s CEO Edgar Bronfman gushed, according to a blog post by Simon Aughton on MacUser.
