Former Google UK exec alleges company misrepresented sales to avoid paying taxes
Author:
Google and other tech companies have come under fire for exploiting a common tax loophole to book revenues through their Irish subsidiaries, but today The Sunday Times is reporting that a former Google UK executive has evidence of further tax avoidance by his one-time employer. Barney Jones worked for Google between 2002 and 2006 and says that during his time at the company, Google relied almost exclusively on its UK sales staff to secure advertising deals in London and elsewhere while the company closed the deals at its Dublin office. Google VP Matt Brittin had previously testified to the Commons Public Accounts Committee (PAC) that “nobody” at Google’s UK office was selling Google advertising, revising his statement last week to…

Rhapsody soars past a million paying customers, president Jon Irwin shaves his head in celebration
Author:
Whatever Spotify can do, Rhapsody can do better? Not quite, but it’s getting there. While the former cruised past 2.5 million paying customers last month, Rhapsody has just announced that it has “gone platnium.” It’s now serving a cool million paying subscribers, right on the heels of its ten-year anniversary. The company’s delivering around ten million songs per day, while making itself available on over 60 devices. What’s next? Well, president Jon Irwin has to grow his locks back (seriously!), and we’re guessing it’ll try to lock down a few more carrier partnerships as the months drag on. When pinged for comment, Billy Corgan said: “I’m on vacation.”

NVIDIA’s faulty laptop GPU settlement starts paying out, file your repair and reimbursement claims now
Author:
Got an old Dell, HP or Apple laptop sitting around with a defective NVIDIA GPU? The company’s finally ready to compensate you. That proposed class-action settlement from late last year has been approved by a California court, and the company’s taking claims for repairs, replacements and reimbursements at a specially-designated website until March 14th. If you’ve got an affected Dell or Apple MacBook Pro, you can get the faulty chips replaced free of charge, while HP owners get a whole new replacement computer, though considering the choices there are the budget Compaq Presario CQ50 or an ASUS Eee PC T101MT, you might be better off selling your old parts on eBay. Finally, if you’ve already paid to get your components replaced and have the docs to prove it, you might be able to get refunded — NVIDIA’s set up a $ 2 million pool to be divided among all such reimbursements. Find everything you need at the links below.

No Comments »Nielsen survey shows high interest in 3DTV, low interest in paying for it right now
Author: Markus Smith
This year’s hot new feature in HDTVs is 3D, but just as fast as the products have rolled out, complaints have come in the form of comments and editorials, citing the glasses, dearth of content and lack of interoperability between different manufacturer’s TVs and glasses. Nielsen and the Cable & Television Association for Marketing have completed what they claim is the first comprehensive study including exposure to 3DTV content with qualitative focus groups and a quantitative study. Analyst wordplay aside, what Frank Stagliano, Nielsen general manager of TV Primary Research calls a “marketing challenge” becomes apparent with the numbers of consumers saying they are likely to buy a 3DTV in the next year dropping after they experience it and consider the additional cost and limited content, with 57% taking issue with the necessary glasses. Though the same number of people said 3DTV made them feel like part of the action, those kinds of responses explain the hype over glasses free technology, despite its significant limitations. While more people than ever will get the chance to get their eyes on 3D football, tennis and movies this weekend, manufacturers and retailers should prepare for a hard time coaxing consumers to buy in immediately (exclusive content is not helping) with the possible exception of videogamers — 71% of hardcore and regular gamers were interested in playing in 3D.
