You quote "extort payment" like you think what they are doing is acceptable....

As far as I know, streaming audio and video technologies have been on the net an used in full force (think realaudio) for at least 8 years. If Acacia wanted to enforce their patent, why didn't they do it a few years back? or 8 years back?

Why are we just finding out about it now?

Are they claming that they weren't aware until recently that the internet offered streaming and downloadable video & audio?
