This is insane.. Microsoft has to pay out $1.52 BILLION (with a B) in a patent suite..
"This is about a patent dispute between a company that thinks it owns certain patents and it went for one of the biggest companies that it could find, a company that states it was doing everything legally to license the technology. If the very final verdict is sustained, it will affect not just Microsoft but every other company that licenses mp3 technologies."
