>Did you see an earlier story from yesterday evening, it is here and it is about how the Canadian RIAA has contradicted it's previous public statements?
I don't think I've ever sampled a DIVX rip of a movie, then went out and got it because the quality is better. You've watched it once, you are unlikely to watch it again. Movies are not music, the reports don't carry over.
>Did you also see the article about how DRM costs 25% of a mobile systems battery power?
I think most people came to the realization that the comparison was not exactly accurate given the differences in bitrates.

It relates to DRM how? If anything the record companies are promoting their CDs over digital music with DRM.
Do all the above examples related to piracy? No, I don't think so. Do they validate DRM? If there was a connection to DRM... I will never buy into arguments not related to the topic at hand. Ever.
As I was reading the article I was thinking about the 380s as I have a 380Z sitting at home. Great machine, 1024-768 display and the best keyboard, IMHO, ever made for a laptop. Though with only 64 MB of RAM, even XFCE runs slow.
Java Stream Assembly Launch pad for video delivery servers using the Java Stream Assembly (JSR-158) API, which reduces the complexity in building and managing video streams to be delivered over access networks. Multiple vendor components can be plugged in using the Java Stream Assembly API for delivering broadcast, on-demand, and interactive TV streams.
Sun Streaming Server Designed to serve standards-compliant media streams (audio/video) over IP using open-standard protocols such as RTP (Real Time Transport Protocol) & [Real Time Streaming Protocol --posting soon to sourceforge.net]. Sun Streaming Server (SSS) is compliant with the 3GPP [The 3rd Generation Partnership Project] and ISMA [Internet Streaming Media Alliance ] specifications. While the server is agnostic to format the media, the streams served by SSS are generally encoded using the MPEG-4 codecs. It supports MPEG-4 and QuickTime out of the box.
Is this anything more then a way to boost up Sun's products?
If this is seen as a patent infringement by Microsoft, then couldn't Microsoft sue the Mozilla Foundation for the automatic installation of plugins because it is similar to that of ActiveX?

Look at 2 of the 3 aspects of the project;
