    Which is a damn good point. If you don’t protect a patent in a reasonable time frame I believe you lose the right to protect it. If Dolby has had this patent for a long time, and allowed it to become part of a standard, it may be a quick dismissal of the case.

      Thinking of trademarks? I’m not sure, but I feel like that is true. To quote a true asshole: “I’m just asking questions”.
