I was reading the news a couple of days ago and found this article:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/33782.html
I have two questions:
how can two companies have patents so closely related? (read the methodology behind this patent - its unbelievable)
and
how will the decision in this case affect the internet overall as well as the IMPA case?
this patent bs is starting to get very confusing aka frustrating to this blonde!!!
oh and I didn't have time to scan the board .. any news on the court hearing yet?

Net video and audio to go to trial
Video and audio transmitted over the Internet is set to go to trial following another successful patent challenge in the US courts.
Last week, a judge in the Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh district court ruled that SightSound was allowed to go ahead with its case against two subsidiaries of media giant Bertelsmann, CDNow and N2K.
