Yet another lawsuit for something they stole an idea from again. I'm disappointed and I don't know what to really say about this. Sony needs to get their stuff together, and think before they mass produce and sell their products otherwise stupid things like this happen. The company suing apparently wants them to stop production with all products connected to Blu-Ray including the PS3, games, movies, Blu-Ray players and the like.

I sue the OP for being disappointed for no reason. The very foundation of my lawsuit is just as good as Sony getting sued.

Somebody many years ago must have so-called Patented Dual Layer on CD's/DVD's for more content .. Blu-Ray uses the Layering system so Sony is getting sued .. but really they won't because the people have no case.

Its funny how ignorant the suers are. Sony can easily beat the crap out of them by throwing the fault to the BD group. That poor company or whatever they are is about to get whooped and used to mop the floor. Better check if McDonalds is hiring.

this case have been around few months ago after Blu-Ray tech officially became next DVD + many famous company joined Blu-Ray Association. I'm amazed there are ppl want to f**k around with Blu-Ray Association more over this technology is getting more and more demand from consumers. Surely they just want easy money without work

What if i coincidentally made something same with other because of just having same idea & its original from myself. patent right system have flaw & now abuse of law.

I remember hearing in my law class, that a guy crushed his penis in a Tim Hortons bathroom. It got between the seat and the toilet and as he sat down he crushed his penis He won too, and now think of this new Sony case as that guy who crushed his penis and won, but the only difference will be that they won't win like this guy did.

Did you read the article? Sony gets sued over everything because they're a big company and they're into sooooo many different forms of electronics that it's hard not to. This is lame people will try and sue over anything, just like the guy who claimed the bluetooth signals from his sixaxis controller made he sterile....

I remember back in high school I sat down too fast and sat on my balls, I feel on the floor damn near in tears nobody knew what happened they was lookin at me and my teacher asked whats wrong I told her I sat on my balls her face was red she didnt know what to say. The boys was like man I know that hurts, my brother was laughing and I heard one girl say he must got some long balls, cause I didnt know that could happen. Guess I should have sued the makers of those plastic chairs.

I love how these unknown companies just appear out of nowhere and sue companies for a patent they probably just sit on. On the other hand, doesn't Sony do patent checks whenever they design a product?

i don't really give a F*&^( if Sony steals something from someone or they think of it by them self....
really all i care is that sony lives 4 ever , makes good games and have decent prices that's all, if they steal an idea that would make my PS3 capable of making ice cream from air then i will be only happy for sony...

The only reason that Orinda is only suing Sony, which is just one of the companies that are apart of the Blu Ray Association, is for quick money. Orinda knows that they will not win this lawsuit. The true reason for this lawsuit is to try to get a investigation going so Sony will have to stop all Blu Ray related production. Orinda knows that if they can get this done, Sony will try to come up with some settlement to have this lawsuit dropped.
