Sam, reminds me of a funny story claiming Microsoft had a patent on 1s and 0s. Sightsound is a company I'd avoid at all cost. GM

Sam, I went to the link for sightsound that you listed. Based on the amount of time it takes for their web page to download and the fact that you cannot use the back button in your browser it get out of the web site (a very irritating capture IMO) I think (and hope) the company dies an early death. That they would like to think that they have patented the "idea" of downloading for content commercial sale only makes my opinion of them worse. For them my favorite motto: "E pluribus screwum". <G> Best, Stitch
