<<From what I can tell, Musicblvd simply take orders over the net, and then ship CDs to the buyer. That is not covered, the patent requires delivery of data over the net (or other electronic transfer) and then downloaded to the buyers machine where the data is stored on a floppy, hard drive, zip drive, etc.>>

GRC,

Part of what I posted -

"Last year, N2K started selling downloadable stereo-quality song files at its site, Music Boulevard (www.musicblvd.com). The cost? Just 99 cents per song. You download a special player called e_mod, which decodes the files and even helps you to burn your own custom-made CDs if you have a CD-R drive."

This IS downloading to a storage device. Am I missing something ?

jww
