From the patent abstract I have a hard time imaging that they will win this lawsuit.

It's sort of like BitTorrent if you squint. Just BitTorrent provided by several central servers run by one company that wants to include DRM in every download from the system.

I'd like to believe that, but... I dunno. Things are crazy, and non-techies just don't understand technical things. It'll come down to how well the lawyers can convince the judge that this applies or doesn't apply.
