    This format deserves the honor of being the first audio format most people ran into with digital rights management already baked in.

    While RealNetworks tie to MusicNet also had DRM baked in, Microsoft tended to have the leverage thanks to its ownership of Windows, and WMA was used in numerous successors to its early DRM music store Pressplay, including Napster and the Zune Music Store.

The Unified Patent Court is officially born. - The IPKat [17:27] schestowitz " [17:27] schestowitz Whether the PAP has legally entered into force is not really clear. Mr Ramsay has announced a declaration to be signed at the COREPER, but no such ceremony has been announced. Would it have taken place, it is more than certain that the Preparatory Committee would have heralded it loud and clear. [17:27] schestowitz Replacing UK by IT is in principle acceptable, provided that all the signatory states agree, or at least those having ratified up to now. [17:27] schestowitz Amending in such a way Art 3 of the PAP is however not changing anything as far as Art 7(2) UPCA is concerned. In the explanatory note for the second ratification a reference to Art 31 VCLT was made. But nothing has apparently happened. [17:27] schestowitz Whilst an agreement on Art 3 PAP seems possible, it is more than doubtful that an agreement on Art 7(2) UPCA is possible. I cannot see IT and NL accepting that the duties originally allocated to London will provisionally be transferred to Paris and/or Munich. This is the more since Mr Ramsay, in his latest interview in JUVE, clearly mentioned the fact that in the end there could only be 2 sections in the central division. Should three sections [17:27] schestowitz remain, it is also not sure whether FR and DE would not prefer to keep the very interesting files in IPC classes A and C for themselves and shift less interesting technical domains to a third and why not even a fourth location. [17:27] schestowitz The three locations were only chosen as none of the three contenders FR, GB and DE would not let loose and claimed the whole central division for themselves. [17:27] schestowitz What good is it deciding the provisional application of the UPC, when such a Damocles sword hanging over the UPC? [17:27] schestowitz Should the files originally meant to go to London be, provisionally or not, transferred to Paris and/or Munich it is possible to consider that such a court is functioning in breach of Art 6(1) ECHR. How can a decision taken in Paris and/or Munich on files in classes A and C be enforced?
