„Believe it or not, I predicted DVD camcorders almost immediately after the DVD began hitting the market. My imagination envisioned plugging a disc into the machine similar to a CD loading mechanism in a car and recording directly to disc, then being able to edit directly from disc. At the time, I was still working at KTVX and knee deep in editing stuff.“

„Sony's 3-CCD DCR-VX1000(U.S. MSRP $4,199) and, to a lesser extent, the single-CCD SonyDCR-VX700 (MSRP $2,999) captured the imagination of both professionaland amateur videographers. Direct digital output to non-linearediting (NLE) systems and lossless multigenerational editing usingconventional linear methods seemed about to become a reality.Although Matsushita beat Sony to the punch by a couple of weekswith a DV camcorder announcement, most reviewers considered thePanasonic model's lack of an IEEE-1394 connector to be a criticalomission. The Sony and Panasonic camcorders claimed 500 TV linesof horizontal resolution achieved by a luminance sampling rateof 13.5 MHz and chrominance sampling rate of 6.75 MHz (4:1:1 YCrCbformat for NTSC), which is a substantial improvement over thebandwidth of Hi8 and S-VHS formats that offer about 400-line resolution.“http://seaspray.trinity-bris.ac.uk/~altwfaq/graphics/video/.../ 1394formats.html - Cached
„Data on blank video cassette sales in the U.S. (and elsewhere) have not yet been released, but the decline will probably not be as large as MMIS predicted for 2002. The World Cup helped to spur sales, and low prices in most markets made the purchase of a two-hour blank cassette a rather pain-less undertaking. Only tape-based video software took a bit of a beating in 2002, succumbing most everywhere to the hugely popular DVD-Video disc.“http://www.mmislueck.com/archives/012503.htm - Cached
„These recorders incorporated Sonys ATRAC3-Plus codec, which is said to be based on a more efficient compression device than that used in current MD recorders. Music compressed to 48 kbps (kilobits per second) would still be of sufficient quality to satisfy most listeners using earphones. At a compressed rate of 48 kbps, up to 13 hours of music or other sound can be recorded on a standard MiniDisc using the new Hi-MD recorders, and up to 45 hours if the new "one gigabyte" Hi-MD MiniDisc is employed.“http://www.mmislueck.com/archives/011204.htm - Cached

„Bridging devices that connect TVs and stereos to the PC through an Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection are coming from companies such as Sony and Linksys, while media servers that store and play rich content over a home network are shipping from a number of consumer electronics companies. These new products will help propel the overall home networking market, as the market grows from $1.8 billion in 2002 to $5.3 billion in 2007. Media networking, while accounting for just 6% of the market in 2002, will make up 49% of the revenues for total home networking by the end of 2007.“http://alteraxion.typepad.com/movies/2003/09/ networked_enter.html - Cached

„This highly flexible HDTV system has capabilities which extend far beyond what the FCC could have envisioned in 1990. Wiley then talked of the transition: "The transition to a digital television system is unlike anything previously attempted in American mass media. Just turning off the analog and turning on the digital would disenfranchise millions of television viewers." An incomplete transition could result in a fragmented television market operating two different incompatible transmission standards.“http://web-star.com/hdtv/november96.html - Cached
„Yet Huston chose Sainton on the slight evidenceof his orchestration and arrangement of a Jack Gerber piece Fiestathat Huston happened to hear, confirmed by Sainton's seafaring hymn "Ribsand Terrors in the Whale" which is cue 4 on this CD. (It has generally beenassumed that Huston's choice was made on the evidence of Sainton's seascapewriting in his moody seventeen-minute symphonic poem, The Island[available with Patrick Hadley's masterpiece The Trees So High,on Chandos CHAN 9181]). There was, of course, another more mundane factorthat must have influenced the choice, in that the production of the filmtook place in and off the coast of Ireland (also Wales, Portugal and theCanary Islands), far away from the U.S.A., so there was probably a logisticalexpediency to consider; yet Huston's faith and confidence in a composer whowas so little known and who was habitually plagued by self-doubt paid offhandsomely for this is undoubtedly one of the best film scores to have beenwritten by an English composer.“http://www.musicweb.uk.net/film/1998/dec98/ text.html - Cached

„Comment: Very short post...but makes the point well: elearning as it was envisioned over the last several years is dead...it's not viable, and it's not practical. My bet: over the next year/two, organizations will fall over themselves promoting the "business value" of elearning - terms like metrics, ROI, strategies, solutions, innovations will abound. Sad thing is - they'll all still be missing the mark.“http://www.elearnspace.org/blog/archives/ 2003_03.html - Cached
