Here's the comment that kind of hooked me by Spike in that interview:

Quote:

The royalties vary but they are based on gross revenue on all business that you do, streaming or not. Further, in the case of some companies, they are asking for client lists, the right to do quarterly audits, and they want you to embed code in your media player in order to track your streaming.

So, given that, hypothetically speaking, it would mean that if under one umbrella company I had ...

300 sites on the net of varying content
Two JackInTheBox 'Restaurants'
A Veterinary Clinic
and ... a brewery (of course!)

... that I would be liable for the 1-2% royalty of all my gross earnings from all of those physical and electronic business presences would be liable to their patent, even though only one single subsite of merely one of my hypothetical 300 domains even hinted at utilizing their "business process model of compressing audio/video data" for the purpose of transmission in any way other than via carrier pidgeon (extinct - and probably because Acacia killed them off) would be liable?
Even though said subsite never made a dime off of audio/video in any shape or form?
Even if there was no taxable revenue generated by any of my business ventures (given the above examples that's likely, LOL)?
Even though JackInTheBox owns the patent on compressing chicken components into bit sized death?
Even though many Vet Clinics rely on Gov't subsidies to maintain themselves and keep operating?
Even though most Breweries wind up dead before they even get started?

HUH!?

Acacia must really have one hell of a bankruptcy plan in mind when they finally get crushed with legal fees...
