Reuters: Disney aims to scare pirates, profit from technology
Disney COO Bob Iger shows that there's more going on beneath those big round ears than learning how to drive a steamboat. Harkening back to a boldness that Walt once showed, he indicates that Disney isn't as frightened of exploring new business models as many other entertainment and media companies have proven to be. Beyond exploring ways to block digital piracy, Iger discusses thought about DVRs, video on demand, their new MovieBeam movie rental service, digital rights management and privacy.
