Burst.com sure got lucky with those patents. Back on 2005 it got $60 million from Microsoft so they could transfer compressed media via the internet. Now Apple settled for another $10 million to keep iTunes up and running. A lot of cash for not much work there. Seems like kind of a bogus and far reaching patent too, but hey, if it was mine I’d sue them!
