Gee..sound in software.. that has to have like a million prior art software out there.... going way back before 1990.

They are getting desperate to try every possible angle to intimidate companies into licensing.

Do you mean that if you download a video game they will claim that it violates their patent?

What about playing video games that have audio online?

Do they claim they hold the rights to those things as well?

Maybe someone can call them and ask.
