if any of that is correct, then how does a company, such as this one, go after our govt? could they invoke their patents (of what they think to be their patents) on our govt, millitary, space program.....etc?
i cant even believe the courts are hearing these cases or reading the documents to consideer hearing these cases! what a total waste of tax payers money.
i'm going to patent the technique of breathing so everyone from the time they were born will have to pay me for every time they took a breath

it's not a matter of SOME sort of streamig media. it's a specific question of the technology behind mpeg video.
