Now that all 12 of its 2015 cases have been dismissed, most with prejudice, and some following settlements, Rothschild Broadcast Distribution Systems, LLC (RBDS) has refreshed its streaming media campaign with six new filings. The NPE sued AT&T (2:16-cv-00385) on April 8 and Barnes & Noble (2:16-cv-00402), Plex (2:16-cv-00404), Rhapsody (2:16-cv-00403), Sony (2:16-cv-00405), and Spotify (2:16-cv-00406) on April 13. As in its previous cases, including those filed against Comcast, Crunchyroll, Vimeo, and VUDU, RBDS accuses the defendants of infringing a single patent (8,856,221) that generally concerns storage of broadcast content.
