In reading my daily dose of tech news, I ran across this story about Real Networks, and their recent reverse engineering of the Apple iPod. The short of it is that Real Networks (a company who I’ve believed to be technically irrelevant for some time now) decided that they were going to essentially reverse engineer […]
