[kNews] Events: Digital Hollywood, Streaming and Cross Media...

[kNews <k-news@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

Things are moving fast in the online content world: eMusic launched their 
download service across Europe; there's Zune (Microsoft's iPod killer ;-) 
coming zoon; and don't forget MySpace's music store, to name but a few. 
Everyone's "taking on iTunes" - great stuff! More choice for the consumer 
and content publisher... 
 

With all this "choice" it seems imperative that we keep track of "it". So, 
I thought I'd dedicate this here newsletter to just that: conferences and 
networking. And, what is more, we've got discounts and freebies abound!
 

1. Digital Hollywood rolls into town - with Kendra freebies
2. Streaming Media Europe in London - 20% discount
3. International Webcasting Association Europe meeting
4. Last chance for Cross Media PICNIC in Amsterdam - 33.33% discount
