The Register: JPEGs are not free: Patent holder pursues IP grab. A video conferencing company based in Austin, Texas says it's going to pursue royalties on the transmission of JPEG images. And it's already found a licensee: Sony Corporation. Formerly known as VTEL, Forgent Networks acquired Compression Labs in 1997, acquiring this patent into the bargain. [Tomalak's Realm]

100 Albums you should get rid of. The thing I like about this list of records-to-shun is that it avoids the obvious targets (Manilow, Kenny G) and goes after worshipped bands like Nirvana and Green Day. I pretty much stopped buying music from any band formed after 1980, so I don't think I own any of albums on this list Link Discuss Thanks, Eric! [Boing Boing Blog]
