| "This Sony patent is a gross mis-use of the patent laws - it should have been rejected. To patent something, one ought at least have made a working protoype of your invention. I the people running patent law are going to allow people to paten IDEAS, they are going to stop other people from trying to develop them. This makes a mockery of the whole concept of patents, which are supposed to be the grant of a monopoly over one's invention for a given period of time.
I would ignore such a "patent" and urge everyone to pirate it, as a moral and ethical rejection of the wrong use of the patent laws." (Briar Lorenz 4/18/2005 2:21:54 PM) |

| "As long as we have control of the real world Im fine with it..." (Jim 11/6/2005 8:12:48 AM) |
| "I was working on this for my semester project when they had to patent it. Hell yes I'll do it anyway. The patent of an invention is more likely than an idea." (Hideki 8/30/2006 9:46:11 AM) |
| "Only one thing to say about this:HD Converter box." (Arkitecht 9/6/2009 5:43:15 PM) |
