Interesting. There was supposed to be a NY Times article on them as well a week or two ago. Did that happen?

Acacia now says it has responded to college concerns with a more generous licensing proposal. The arrangement, detailed in a letter dated Thursday, would exempt colleges from paying royalties on streaming video that produces no income. Colleges with small distance-learning programs could be exempted, and the minimum royalty for larger colleges could be as low as $1,000 annually.

Gotta admit though, if you could get Acacia off your back for as low as $1000 per year, I have a feeling a lot of people would take it. Just common business sense, $1k versus several times that in legal fees with no assurances.

I think that in the long run it will some out that the patent was given without propre research on the patent offices part.
