If the Xbox 360 is banned in America, then its over and out for the system, leaving only the UK as a worthy market.

I do not hope for the ban, but MS shouldnt use patented software from others, if they do they should pay. Motoral has every right to claim for money.

No see, every company uses patents from everyone else - but motorola's demands are ridiculous, that's the point. Microsoft is willing to pay, but what Motorola wants is extortion.

Companies have a right to value their technology at what they feel is appropriate.  If MS doesn't want to pay, they have to either find another solution, or remove the feature from their product.  They can't just say "you are asking too much, so we are going to steal it"
