Msoft Sued Over Live Patent Infringment

Talk about a day late and a dollar short, New York-based company Paltalk has filed suit against Microsoft for allegedly infringing on two of their patents in the creation of Xbox Live.

According to Ars Technica, which actually read through the complaint, there's little to no detail about how exactly Microsoft is infringing on Paltalk, though the company does point to two patents, 523 and 686, both of which involve server-group messaging.

As Ars Technica so very rightfully points out, even if Msoft lost the suit, they're not going to can Live. Instead the company would probably just pony up the cash.
