Lord Custos writes: "So, Slashdot...what do you feel about " Enforced Playback of Adverts" in your downloaded Media?

Well, a patent for "Enforcing Advertising Playback For Downloaded Media Content" is now officially in play. Now, anyone want to take a wild guess whose idea this was?

Russell Shaw at ZDnet has THIS ("http://blogs.zdnet.com/ip-telephony/?p=2916") to say about Patent 20070294772.

Here's the text of the patent: http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PG01&s1=20070294772.PGNR.&OS=DN/20070294772RS=DN/20070294772
