Thanks Jim. This from my question regarding the patent and how it
might affect eDig from jlaboda on Clearstation.

From the AudioHighway patent:
1."Audio programming is stored digitally on a non-volatile medium, such as a hard drive, or in a flash EPROM, or other solid state non-volatile memory."

2. Competition will evolve ... The device e.Digital will manufacter for Lucent is not the key. We want to establish the MicroOS in as many digital music devices as possible. Currently, there is no known competition which can read/write to flash memory as best as we can. AudioHighway could conceivable license our MicroOS for their device.

Jim, did you notice that there is a whole camp out there that must have read a different abstract than we did?..They seem to think that all AHWY has for claims is..."automatic selection, ordering and download, confirmation of receipt, and receipt of requested data for subscription and non-subscription customers. "..
Maybe I read too much of the abstract, but I saw many claims, and what they amount to is a device and system for voice/data/music storage and downloads from about source capable of digital transmission, portable unit in addition, with data to speech thrown in for good measure.
Most of us here agree it shouldn't impact EDIG other than if we manufacture devices for ourselves or others, we might have to pay a license fee.
Wonder what the street will think?
Best, Savant
