Ah, the ProCD case. That was featured prominently in my first year Contract Law course - of course, the professor (a rather free-market conservative type) neglected to mention that such a view is actually in the minority when looking at Federal Circuit and District decisions on the matter (and the Supreme Court has yet to take such a case up).
