silliness
All the points seem to have been covered by the previous posts. Patenting songs listings sorted by Artist, Album etc is just silly. I hope the judge throws it out and slaps Dave with a nice fine for wasting Apple's time and money.
Over-generalized GUI descriptions in a patent shouldn't be allowed. Has anyone been the the Patent website and seen if this patent has pictures submitted in the application?
Because I developed a GUI EXACTLY like iTunes, even better than Dave's software idea, and I posted a flyer up a WWDC five years ago with a picture. Some Apple guy must have seen it and copied it. Yeah.
