Well spoken John...
It is easy to bitch about sponsors that settle when they have nothing to lose. But the sponsors have everything to lose. And, they have many smart lawyers that tell them the best thing to do is to settle now before the court decides to uphold the patent and then sponsors will be paying retroactively.

You can bet your ass, if I still ran Ultracash and received paperwork and started doing the figures on when we started using streaming video, I would settle. There is just too much to lose not to.
