From what I've gathered it looks like everyone mentioned initially licensed the technology from Paltalk, but once the contracts were up they continued to use them without paying up.

Microsoft settled out of court...so basically it looks like Paltalk has a strong case here.

Most people that game think this is absurd only because someone is suing a gaming company. I'm actually glad sony and all of them were sued. They deserved it. It would be "absured" if he lost the argument. This thread needs a thumbs up and not a thumbs down...

what makes this a fail lawsuit is. They (Paltalk) knew the contracts ran out. and then sat on it until there were many successful businesses running their software, and >NOW< they want to sue because they can get buttloads of cash for it.
So its a dishonorable lawsuit.

Like Beast said i don't owe any business anymore than the money i already gave them. But at the same time i think its lame that the group sat on an expired contract until they could really rake in some cash with a lawsuit.
 
It is a dishonorable lawsuite, but it isn't up to them to tell their delinquent customers. It is the customers responsibility to pay. Thats how it is in contracts, I'm failry positive something of that nature is in there so the fault rests in the customers (Blizzard etc.)
 
I'm really impressed with the arguments/statements on both sides of the issue. However, no one seems to actually know what the patent laws are. http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/mpep/consolidated_laws.pdf is a brief summary of the patent laws. I suggest examining them. It is fully within their power to sue them rightfully, whether or not they waited for them to make profit. It's not their fault for trying to make money off someone exploiting them.
