No, just audio in media player.
Just out of curiousity, name other scenerios sort of like this.
Let's use the example JMM gave. They're going after the process, not the mechanism.
So Microsoft invents media player and gives it to their customers. But to use this player is a violation of this patent. Using it's process, meaning you encoded a clip and put it on the net for people to view.
What other situations exist that are similar? I said last week, making and selling water pipes (aka bongs). To sell it is legal depending on the state, but to use it with it's truest intent (weed) is illegal. I know that's a poor example because you 're supposed to use it with tobacco which would make this example, not so good.
What else is like this?
Keep in mind, we haven't had Robert on the show to answer anything yet, so I'm really still in the dark trying to uderstand which parts of "use" are in violation.
