Review Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Storage Software 2005-2009 Forecast and Analysis / IDC Research:This IDC study provides a bottom-up sizing of the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) (APEJ) storage software market in 2004 and presents forecast data for 2005–2009. "The APEJ storage software market totaled US$503. 2 million in 2004, for a robust 28. 5% increase over the 2003 total of US$391. 6 million," says Vivian Tero, senior analyst, System Infrastructure Software Research. "Backup and archive software continues to account for a big chunk of the storage software revenue, but demand for storage replication is picking up and is attributed to the continued decline in disk and tape prices, increasing vendor support for heterogeneous platforms, regulatory compliance, and high availability requirements. " Tero also adds, "In the short term, we will continue to see strong demand for storage as end users view data protection and business continuity as an investment priority. ".

Review Western Europe IP-Based Paid Music Service Provider Forecast and Analysis, 2004-2009 / IDC Research:This report provides IDC's user and revenue forecasts for services offered by IP-based paid music service providers (MSPs) in Western Europe. The study measures numbers of take-up and spending on IP-based pay-per-download services (such as Apple's iTunes Music Store) and subscription services, examining the technology trends, content trends and related PC/audio hardware developments impacting take-up of the services. "Usage of paid music service providers in Europe will increase by two and a half time times during 2005," said Jason Armitage, senior research analyst, European Consumer Devices and Technologies. "Adoption of pay-per-download services is being driven by massive increases in the sale of portable compressed audio players, while subscription services are also expected to proliferate across the region. However, interoperability is a continuing area of difficulty for paid online music services. In particular, the number of portable devices able to playback music from specific services is limited by the usage of proprietary codec and DRM technologies. ".

Review U.S. Wireless Music 2005-2009 Forecast and Analysis: Grooves on the Move / IDC Research:This IDC study provides an analysis and forecast of the U. S. wireless music service provider market. The study has three central sections. The Situation Overview section reviews current market trends and discusses recent developments in the market. The Demographics and Consumer Demand section discusses wireless music consumer views about data services in general, and wireless music services in particular. The Future Outlook section outlines IDC's assumptions about market trends during the forecast period and presents forecast data and analysis for the period from 2005 to 2009. "The hype surrounding wireless music services belies the fact that the U. S. market is still in its infancy. [+]IDC forecasts that revenue for full track, over-the-air downloads will grow from zero in 2004 to $1. 2 billion in 2009. This is a market with tremendous potential, and tapping into it will require players to successfully negotiate multiple gating factors, from low penetration of music-enabled handsets to the lack of 3G wireless networks and an industry-standard DRM technology, as well as the ongoing availability of competing audio technologies and devices. " — Susan Kevorkian, senior research analyst, Consumer Markets: Audio; David Linsalata, research analyst, Mobile Devices; and Lewis Ward, senior research analyst, Wireless and Mobile Communications.

Review Brand It, Bundle It, Package It Together: IDC's 2005 Business Monitor Survey, Part 1 / IDC Research:This IDC survey study discusses the results gained from 512 United States–based IS managers regarding their companies' PC monitor usage and preferences. Respondents were asked a wide range of questions via an online survey about their current monitor ownership, the factors that affected their past purchase decisions, their future buying plans, and their channel and brand preferences. This document underscores the importance of the PC monitor market in the corporate space as it continues to evolve. The information within this document was compiled to allow the reader to better understand the intentions of the commercial PC monitor buyer in the future. Over time, IDC believes that high levels of raw panel production and the nature of the competitive marketplace will continue to drive finished product LCDs pricing downwards, ultimately driving adoption. "2005 holds a tremendous level of promise within the flat panel marketplace. Well-priced, value-oriented flat panel solutions will be the coveted combination in the near future. In addition, vendors should be cognizant of whom their target markets are, where they buy, and how much they're willing to spend so that they may create lasting relationships going forward.

Review Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Human Resources and Training Business Process Outsourcing 2006-2010 Forecast and Analysis / IDC Research:This IDC study represents a comprehensive overview of the market opportunities and forecasts for human resources (HR) and training business process outsourcing (BPO) in the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ region. This HR and training BPO overview covers qualitative as well as quantitative insights across 12 APEJ countries from 2005 up to 2010. This report builds on the inaugural HR and training BPO report published in 2005. Recommendations and evaluations are made possible through IDC's continuous engagement of HR and training BPO players across APEJ, which includes interviews with executives, site visits, customer interviews, and using IDC's contracts database (DB). This study is of value to HR and training BPO SPs as well as enterprises in answering questions such as, "Where do the opportunities in HR and training outsourcing in APEJ lie?," "How big was it a few years ago?," "How big will it get in five years' time?," "How fast is it growing?," "What areas of HR outsourcing are hot (e. g. , payroll, staffing, and benefits) in addition to training?," and "Is HR strategically positioned to become a true business partner in corporations?" "HR and training comprise one of the key drivers of BPO in the APEJ region but there still needs to be a mindset change that sees HR as a strategic business partner within corporations. Recruiting, retaining, and motivating talents would be one of the key challenges for HR outsourcing vendors as enterprises demand the right skills at the right place at the right price for their businesses," says Conrad Chang, senior analyst, BPO Research, IDC Asia/Pacific.
