Here are the latest reports on Sprint LG Viper 4G up for pre-order now, coming on April 22nd
Just as promised when we first met the carrier’s Viper 4G, Sprint’s placing the device up for pre-order today. Notably, rumors of an eventual April 22nd release date can now rest comfortably, with The Now Network saying it’ll do its best to get the Gingerbread handset on all early-adopting hands before Sunday. For being one of Sprint’s initial LTE slabs, the Viper bears a flexible $99 price tag — of course, that’s with a two-year deal, a $50 mail-in rebate and an understanding that the carrier’s LTE waves aren’t even live yet. If you’re not due an upgrade just yet, though, then you’ll have to part ways with around $400. Sound good? Head over to the source below to give it a last gander before you decide to add it to your cart.

Rdio inks deal to license UK music, but doesn’t offer up a visit date

Here are the latest reports on Rdio inks deal to license UK music, but doesn’t offer up a visit date
One of those other music subscription services has inched towards British shores, announcing a licensing deal with PRS for Music, a not-for-profit organization representing around 85,000 songwriters and music publishers. The San Francisco-made music service has already launched across Europe, the US and Brazil, but still remains out of reach for Brits. While it’s far from a confirmation of intent, the service might have plans to jump across to the land of royalty, Rich Tea biscuits and RPattz pretty soon.

German government proposes to charge search engines for excerpting news sites

Here are the latest reports on German government proposes to charge search engines for excerpting news sites
A German government committee is proposing changes that could force search engines operating in the country to pay for using news excerpts. The plans involve setting up a department to charge royalties from sites that aggregate news feeds, and covers them for 12-months from date of publish. This isn’t the first country to attempt to protect publishers’ material, with the Newspaper Licensing Agency in the UK also performing a similar role. Before you hide your news blog from German eyes, the ruling will only affect commercial outfits.
Germany’s publishing executives have been pushing for such a move since a case in Belgium that saw Google News forced to stop excerpting articles. Unsurprisingly there is strong support from the industry, with 149 execs from the country already having petitioned the government with a “Hamburg Declaration on Intellectual Property Rights” proposal in 2009, and both the German Federation of Newspaper Publishers and Association of German Magazine Publishers also campaigning for change. Now that the committee has laid down clear plans, it remains to be seen if or how they will be implemented, but with the nation’s track record for pulling no punches where technology is concerned, search engines might have to prepare for a rapid change in policy.
