Target Technology sues Sony for using a patented technology in their Blu-ray discs.
Target's patent, which was submitted in 2004 and granted in 2006, describes the use of silver-based alloys.
The company demands that Sony stop producing Blu-ray discs until the case has been settled.
Sony just settled with another company about the way they made the rumble effects in their older Playstation game controllers. The cost was $97 million. Sony also recently settled a dispute with Kodak as well. Over 10 digital camera patents were violated by the company.

Amazon sells Toshiba HD-A2 model as low as $238 over Memorial Day weekend
MAY 29 | Toshiba’s recent price drop on its HD DVD players and aggressive retailer pricing over the holiday weekend have driven up sales as much as tenfold at some retailers.
Since Toshiba began offering a $100 instant rebate on HD DVD players, sales have grown between fivefold and tenfold, depending on the retailer, said Jodi Sally, VP of marketing for Toshiba America Consumer Products.
“We’re thrilled to see that consumers are, by far, choosing Toshiba’s HD DVD players as their source for high-definition,” Sally said.
On May 20, Toshiba began offering the rebate on select HD DVD player models, effectively slashing the price on the bottom line HD-A2 model to $299.
Amazon.com cut the price even further, to as low as $238 over Memorial Day weekend. The lower price shot up the player to be the top-selling DVD player on the site, a spot previously held by the Oppo up-converting DVD player, which sells for $229.
The HD-A2 player price was back up to $299 on Tuesday on Amazon and listed as out of stock. Still it remained the top-selling DVD player and ranked No. 7 in sales in the electronics category.
An Amazon.com spokesman didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment about the sales.
Other retailers were selling the player for $299 on Tuesday, but comments on the AVS Forum reported seeing deals over the weekend from retailer Electronics Expo, which also sells players on Amazon.com.

Men nu är det så att jag är sugen på Blu-Ray eller HD-DVD nu när utbudet av filmer har börjat att öka. 507 har stöd för 1080p/24 (Dagens högsta HDTV-kvalitet) men många av dagens Blu-Ray eller HD-DVD spelare har inget stöd för detta så min fråga är, är det värt att vänta på en spelare som kan spela i 1080p/24? Och kommer man märka någon skillnad mot en som inte har stöd för detta? Och vad i praktiken blir bättre, blir bilden bättre?

TORONTO, May 30 /CNW/ - Certicom Corp. (TSX: CIC) today announced it has
initiated litigation in the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division,
against Sony Corporation, and related Sony companies, for patent infringement.
In its filing, Certicom alleged infringement concerning two United States
patents used in the content protection technologies found in Sony products.
The patents-in-suit are two of Certicom's fundamental patents used in
consumer electronics, in particular its world-leading version of Elliptic
Curve Cryptography (ECC). In its complaint, Certicom alleges Sony has, and
continues to, infringe, contribute to and induce the infringement of
Certicom's patents by making, using, importing, offering for sale and selling
their products in the U.S. without being licensed by Certicom to do so. These
patents are related to content protection technologies, including Advanced
Access Control System (AACS) used in Blu-ray and Digital Transmission Content
Protection (DTCP) used in wired and wireless distribution of compression audio
and video. Products affected include Playstation 3, DVD players, VAIO personal
computers and certain high definition TV models and audio equipment.
"We have invested heavily in ECC research and development over many years
and feel strongly that our shareholders deserve fair value from companies
using our patented technology," said Bernard Crotty, President and Chief
Executive Officer. "We prefer to resolve these issues through commercial
discussions and without litigation. However, at this point we are left with no
alternative but to file suit."
Certicom is represented by the Fish & Neave Intellectual Property Group
of U.S.-based law firm Ropes & Gray.

Priserna på hd-dvd-spelare i USA chocksänktes nyligen. Nu kostar en hd-dvd spelare drygt 2 000 kronor. I Sverige kommer priserna att sänkas under hösten. Då kommer en spelare kosta från 3 000 kronor och uppåt.
Priset på blue-ray och hd-dvd spelare i Sverige och utomlands har sjunkit rejält den senaste tiden. Sent i höstas kostade en blu-ray-spelare från Samsung närmare 11 000 kronor. Nu får du samma spelare för knappt 6 000 kronor. Samma sak med hd-dvd-spelare. De kostade 6 - 7 000 kronor när de kom i höstas. Nu kostar samma spelare drygt 3 600 kronor.
I USA har utvecklingen gått ännu snabbare, där har priset på exempelvis hd-dvd spelare från Toshiba den senaste tiden sänkts rejält. För några veckor sedan sänktes priset på Toshibas enklaste hd-dvd spelare med 100 dollar, cirka 700 kronor på en gång. Numera kostar en hd-dvd spelare i USA lite drygt 2 000 kronor.
Sedan Toshiba nyligen gjorde den här kraftiga prissänkningen har mycket hänt med försäljningen. Enligt uppgifter från Toshiba i USA har försäljningen ökat 5-10 gånger på kort tid.
I Sverige kostar Toshibas enklaste hd-dvd spelare från 3 600 kronor enligt Prisjakt och Pricerunner. Med andra ord klart mycket mer än vad samma spelare kostar i USA. Men en prissänkning är på gång i Sverige också. Enligt uppgifter till Prylportalen.se kommer Toshiba under senhösten att göra flera aggresiva prissänkningar på sina hd-dvd spelare. Man kommer först att sälja spelarna tillsammans med en eller flera hd-dvd filmer.
Under senhösten kommer sedan en större prissänkning på Toshibas hd-dvd-spelare. Räkna med ett pris på runt 3 000 kronor för den billigaste modellen.

This HD DVD edition of 'Flags of Our Fathers' narrowly trumps the audio presentation on the Blu-ray edition by upgrading from a standard mix to a Dolby Digital 5.1-Plus track (1.5 Mbps). The Plus-mix feels richer -- especially when explosions are raging from all angles. The bass tones are a bit more resonant on the HD DVD, while they're a bit more throaty on the Blu-ray.

Så länge dom skippar PCM/TrueHD/DTS-HD MA så kan dom glömma att jag tänker köpa filmerna, det kvittar vare sig det är DD eller DD+
Men det intressanta är just AVC vs. VC-1, MS säger hela tiden att AVC blurrar till bilden och att VC-1 är "transparent" till mastern vilket tydligt är BS.
Men VC-1 är nog inte problemet här, utan HD DVD's utrymme och taket för bitraten.
Detta återkommer hela tiden, tråden på avsforum är full av jämförelser nu, MPEG-2 vs. VC-1 och AVC vs. VC-1, i nästan alla fall förutom några BD25/MPEG-2 släpp så visar VC-1 att grain och detaljer suddas ut jämfört med BD släppen av samma filmer.

"I was shocked to see that AVC was the codec used, and if the meter in the PS3 is accurate, a very high bitrate AVC encode to boot! The lowest I saw the meter drop to was 29.5 Mbps, with peaks around 39 Mbps! As you would expect from such a high bitrate, compression was never an issue and the overall look of the film was outstanding! Comparing this to the VC-1 encoded HD DVD I was equally impressed with each of the encodes."

In a side by side comparison of the film between the VC-1 transfer on this HD DVD version and the AVC MPEG-4 transfer on the Blu-ray, it does seem that the Blu-ray/AVC encode is the tiniest bit sharper, while the HD DVD/VC-1 is the slightest bit softer.

Coming to America is being released by Paramount on both HD DVD and Blu-ray on June 5, keeping their neutral status in the Hi-Def wars. On the video side, the discs are presented in two different encodes, HD DVD is released with a 1080p VC-1 encode, while the Blu-ray has an AVC/MPEG-4 1080p encode. While generally Paramount releases have looked very similar, regardless of the encode, the case is not the same with this release.
Of the two releases, I preferred the look of the VC-1 encoded HD DVD to the BD for a number of reasons. First, the VC-1 transfer was much sharper than the AVC encode on the Blu-ray Disc with the fine detail in the foreground and background having more detail. Second, the color saturation was much richer and more satisfying to the eyes. The only negative on the VC-1 transfer was that there was some noise in some solid objects in the background, specifically on some painted walls. This has the classic look of compression issues, and that may be the culprit here.
To compare the titles, I watched ½ of the movie on HD DVD and ½ of the movie on BD, but I would switch between the discs about every 4 chapters or so. My wife was doing laundry the night we watched the movie, so when she would leave the room, I would change between the players. We started the movie on HD DVD and when I made the transition to the BD version, she noticed something was amiss as soon as she sat back down and questioned “what did I do to the picture?” I played dumb and we continued to watch the movie. About 25 minutes later, she left the room again and I switched back to HD DVD. When she came back in again, she commented that “whatever I did when she was gone, it looks much better now”. I had noticed the same thing, but kept my mouth shut. The last change back to the BD disc she was in the room and she finally figured out what I was doing and commented “Wow, normally they look exactly the same!”
Granted, it isn’t as if the Blu-ray looks bad, but it just doesn’t look as good as the HD DVD does, which is why I am scoring them differently. If you didn’t have to two to compare against side by side, you would think that each of them looks just fine, but I have the benefit of being able to go back and forth between the two formats. The Blu-ray release lacks the “pop” that the HD DVD has but lacks some of the compression issues on the HD DVD. But when you take everything together, the HD DVD has a more refined look to it in comparison.

Cryptography software provider Certicom has initiated litigation in the Eastern District of Texas against Sony, for patent infringement related to the AACS content protection used in Blu-Ray.
In its filing, Certicom alleged infringement concerning two United States patents used in the content protection technologies found in Sony products.
The patents-in-suit are two of Certicom's fundamental patents used in consumer electronics, in particular its version of Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) public-key scheme. In its complaint, Certicom alleges Sony has, and continues to, infringe, contribute to and induce the infringement of Certicom's patents by making, using, importing, offering for sale and selling their products in the U.S. without being licensed by Certicom to do so. These patents are related to content protection technologies, including Advanced Access Control System (AACS) used in Blu-ray and Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) used in wired and wireless distribution of compression audio and video. Products affected include Playstation 3, DVD players, VAIO personal computers and certain high definition TV models and audio equipment.
"We have invested heavily in ECC research and development over many years and feel strongly that our shareholders deserve fair value from companies using our patented technology," said Bernard Crotty, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We prefer to resolve these issues through commercial discussions and without litigation. However, at this point we are left with no alternative but to file suit."
Sony has not made any official statement on the suit.
Certicom has filed the related ECC patent at the US Patent and Trademark Office in 2000.
Sony sued over Blu-ray
Given its global position as an electronics giant, Sony is quite familiar with patent law and the potential penalties for infringement.
Barely three months ago, Sony paid $97 million in damages and interest to Immersion in a dispute over the rumble functions in Sony's Dual Shock controllers. And while the two companies have since patched things up, Sony opted to leave rumble by the wayside when it was designing the PlayStation 3's motion-sensing Sixaxis controller.
The electronics giant hasn't been able to entirely avoid patent headaches since then, however, as Irvine, Calif.-based Target Technology filed suit earlier this month, seeking damages for alleged patent violations related to Sony's Blu-ray technology, which is used in the PS3 system.
The suit, which names Sony Computer Entertainment America, Sony Pictures and Sony DADC, claims that products marketed under the Blu-ray name infringe on a patent Target owns for reflective-layer materials in optical discs. The patent addresses what Target called a need for specific types of silver-based alloys with the advantages (but not the price) of gold. According to the patent, the alloys are also more resistant to corrosion than pure silver.
Target does not specify in its suit whether it believes all of Sony's Blu-ray discs infringe on the Target patent or whether the suit applies to just a portion of the discs manufactured. The patent was filed in April of 2004 and granted in March of 2006.
Target is seeking a permanent injunction that would prevent Sony from violating Target patent rights in the future, as well as damages, with interest, multiplied due to what Target characterizes as deliberate and willful infringement.
Sony representatives declined to comment. Target's attorneys had not returned GameSpot's requests for comment before press time.

BD' är skarpare och visar mer detaljer medans HD DVD'n är mer utsmetad och grain är magiskt mindre synligt

Är det värt att ta en sida? Kommer verkligen den ena att battlea ut den andra? Jag är sååå nära på att köpa en HD-DVD spelare för många titlar som inte finns på Blu-Ray men finns till HD-DVD vill jag verkligen ha.
Är det dumt att köra på båda? Och om det blir så att den ena "vinner".. hur lång tid kommer detta att ta? Känns som att det borde börja hända något ganska snart.. kanske efter sommaren.

Försäljningssiffrorna pekar väl på att HDDVD är dött innan vintern...
