Internet technology, hope this is the correct thread. Could be news as well.

"Media file distribution with adaptive transmission protocols"
Not sure who has seen this stupidity in California but the way the patent is claimed seems that all data between a server and pc or similar that is tuned to perform at best possible effort can fall under their patent. "QOS"
So pretty much anything from iCloud, amazon cloud, google.com, android anything, mobile phone data, voip, ftp and well anything else you can imagine.
From a webpage loading on a pc using firefox to MS windows update service.
Hopefully someone would get this ridiculous patent sorted out before the whole technology / software industry and anything else that the USA depend on comes crashing down dew to a judge on a mission in SF CA.
Stuff like this will never happen in UK / EU they will throw this out before it can go to court and then punish the company trying to waist the courts time like this.
