Aureal Issues Challenge to Creative Labs

Aureal Chooses Marketplace Over Courtroom to Compete

biz.yahoo.com

This most recent Creative complaint centers primarily on a comparison chart prepared by Aureal several weeks ago and published by third parties on the World Wide Web. This feature comparison was requested by several Aureal customers and potential customers as well as industry press to better evaluate the differences between the Diamond Multimedia's Monster Sound MX 300 product (which is based on Aureal's Vortex 2 chip) and the Creative Sound Blaster Live! product. These requests were in response to an inaccurate comparison chart published on a Web site in Singapore. Aureal used Creative's own publicly available product description material and Creative-released software driver information to prepare the comparison. In the chart, Aureal identified the Creative material it was using as the source for the Sound Blaster Live! feature information. Aureal received no notification from Creative that it disagreed with information on this comparison chart. Instead, Creative filed yet another lawsuit against Aureal.
