Not sure if this has been brought up before, but those involved might want to check the International Standards Organization. They're responsible for creating the OSI model in 1984, which established the standard on how data is transfered through a network. Everything, whether it be text, video, audio is all transfered the exact same way, there's no differentiation in the way data is transmitted. If Acacia claims they own the patent to video streaming, then that also means they're claiming the patent to transmitting ANYTHING through a network, because all goes through the exact same process.
