Do you need someone to draw you a picture or something?
If you have a webserver wit movies or audio on that server ready for people to download or stream, then you have "made" the invention described in one of the claims of Acacias currently valid patent.
What is wrong with some of you people with these bright ideas?
Just donate to the IMPA. Fish & Richardson are far more expierienced at invalidating patents than you are.
And they do it using the law that they have studied for the past 125 years, and not some mumbo-jumbo "I read a couple things.. Acacia's going to be sorry now!".
From F&R's page:
Fish & Richardson P.C. is a national law firm with 300 lawyers in eight offices: Boston, Dallas, Delaware, New York, San Diego, Silicon Valley, Twin Cities, and Washington, DC. The firm is one of the largest firms practicing intellectual property, litigation, and corporate law and the only firm with a truly national intellectual property practice. Founded in 1878, the firm represented Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, and the Wright Brothers. For 125 years we have served great innovators, helping to protect countless ideas, nurture discoveries, and bring new concepts to market. The firm prosecuted and litigated many of the fundamental patents of an industrialized America, serving corporations creating the cutting-edge technologies of the day: the telephone, the air-brake, the steam turbine, the automobile, and the radio. Frederick Fish, the firm's founder, was for many years the acknowledged leader of the patent bar of the entire country at a time when patents were more important than they had ever been. Today, the firm continues to represent great innovators working in cutting-edge technologies
Translation?
"We are probably the best IP law firm in the free world"
