Can Neil Young help Sun and Sony reinvent music media?
By: Stan Beer
I've been a Neil Young fan since "After The Goldrush" (yes I'm that old) so seeing the fuss being made about him at Sun's JavaOne conference where he publicly threw his support behind Java and Blu-ray technologies naturally perked my interest. The question is can the likes of Young help the developers of Java and Blu-ray change the way music is packaged and sold?

Java on the iPhone - not going to happen?
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt
Sun’s VP of Java Marketing, Eric Klien, has been quoted saying he wants to bring Java to the iPhone now that the SDK makes the iPhone ‘open’... but with Apple having a veto on which apps get authorised or not, surely the ‘open’ iPhone is only as open as Apple wants it to be – and why would Apple allow Java, which lets developers create their own code to run ‘anywhere’ – circumvent the iPhone SDK process?

Microsoft's HDi interactivity layer loses from HD DVD's death - but does it matter?
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt
Now that HD DVD is dead, Microsoft’s HDi interactivity layer also loses to BD-J, the Java interactivity format used on Blu-ray discs. An Ovum analyst thinks this is a big deal, but is it?
