(Yes, Patent trolling needs to be stopped)
I don't really understand how Broadcom believes they can get anything out of this. Look at the cited patents: several of these were filed and/or granted before Netflix ever streamed a byte, and one of them expired last year. I'm not a patent lawyer, but I thought you had to defend your patents quickly and vigorously. Won't Broadcom have to explain why they sat on this for roughly a decade while Netflix evidently destroyed their market?
and for what its worth i cut my cable a long time ago due to poor channel selection and content as well as all the graffitti that is plastered all over something that is supposed to be entertaining but becomes annoying like a child standing infront of the screen on purpose.
if broadcom can address those issues im sure they can do well.
