LG sues SONY
LG is suing SONY for sony infringing on LG patents regarding the blue ray player. PS3's are already being band in Europe at this point and if the court rules in favor of LG, LG will either end up getting paid out for every ps3 ever sold, or decide they want all PS3's bannd till new versions without the blue ray come out Lol

^Ditto...
A company MUST license it's patents or lose them. At worse SONY and LG will come to a licensing agreement (previous sales compensated of coarse).
If LG loses.. they may be forced to pay a VERY hefty sum to SONY for damages.
4 Patents and suing SONY... They are either nuts or have rock solid evidence.
This stems back to the cell phone case.... Seems to me like they are trying to "bully" a way for cheaper licensing fees.
Everyone loses. EVERYONE.
On a side note, the patent system needs a LOT work...
No it isn't. They may have the highest stake in it as far as R&D ect, but it isn't theirs. It was a group effort. LG being part of it. Each manufacturer has it's own way's of dealing with the core tech and if it does not it pay's licensing fees to use another company's.
