I think they are using internic to get their list.
My packet came to my PO Box, the only place that has that address is network solutions. Plus it was sent to venuscash, my affiliate program and not to my main website. Its even in the same format used when you do a whois.
this just pisses me off because, for one, it dont apply to me, we dont use their system for streaming anything. I doubt anyone here actually uses the system they claim. This crap that my affilaite program provides access to sites that violate their patent is bullshit. Now it will cost me a lawyer to send them a letter telling them we dont use their system for video/audio, and to please provide details of what they think we have or do that violates it.
But you all need to look at the patent, the abstract says " A system for distributing video", it dont say all video, also look at sheet 8 of 12, does this match what you do, especially drawings 412-419, then again under page 6, item 30, then again on page 19 under "what is claimed"
this is a really good system they patented, it is ment to be fully automated, and compresses videos, assings unique ID codes and should allow the user to choose the date and time he wishes to watch the video. Its a good system, but I doubt its one anyone here uses.
I think what is going on is they are mass mailing people this because they really have no idea what this patent actually is for and now you all think the world is falling because you all think its for all video/audio. this is only a system for doing video, its not for all.
The problem with these guys is now they force us to have to defend ourselves and prove we are not using their system which costs us money.
