RealNetworks not giving up on RealDVD, plans to appeal court injunction

RealNetworks found itself on the wrong end of a gavel back in August, receiving a court injunction to stop selling its RealDVD software -- curiously flying in the face of an earlier ruling in the favor of Kaleidescape. Perhaps that's why Real isn't done fighting yet. Or, perhaps it's just because it doesn't want to be put out of business. Either way, the company is set to file an appeal and take the show back to court again. Exactly what the basis of their appeal will be remains to be seen -- assuming there is one -- but here's to hoping it's a little more legally sound than their last defense. We're not quite ready to give up on Fair Use just yet ourselves.

First of all...
You have no dignity left "xuchaoxion" since all of the products you are selling are (almost certainly) KIRF, you are (again, almost certainly) exploiting children for labor. I hope your superiors and all those responsible for their suffering will "get the best service be most satisfied with" burning in the first three rings of purgatory.

Secondly
If you are going to attempt to peddle your wares in a post, that is completely off-topic from said post, at least learn to speak proper English.

Thank YOU for MY attention? More like F%&K YOU for wasting part of my attention span this fine morning.

Hmm. What I want to see is Island of the Puffins in my DVD collection. Now.

Oh, and fair use FTW... I guess.

@mhalp:

Saw this post after (I'm assuming) the post you're referencing was deleted; the result makes this look like either the non-sequitur of the day or post by Tourette's.

Whether you're a brother
or whether you're a mother
you need RealDVD to be stayin' alive
Feel the DVD rippin'
and Hollywood shakin'
but it is stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive


WERD!

@ Sanskrit

You are correct; the post I was yelling at was deleted. It does look very out of place. My apologies genessend.

Haha. It's okay, I never saw it. I'm just a little confused. :-)

does anyone else think its hysterical the titles that Real has displayed. I bet that the folks at Real are the only people on the planet that bought such horrible flicks.
