This is interesting

I wonder how the work is split between client/server in (actual) Shazam. (I suppose only the key points are sent to the server, but I may be wrong - Siri for example sends the server a compressed audio file of the recorded sound)

First time I used Shazam, was so amazed. Had to download the original paper, still couldn't understand well enough how it worked, in order to code it. now lets get to work on it.

Great article, thank you

So, the patent infringement story ended up with "Good luck."?

It happened 3 years ago and there was nothing posted after 2010 on that issue anymore, so I believe they didn't file a suit in the end.

Here's the links to the infringement story for those that missed it: http://www.redcode.nl/blog/2010/07/patent-infringement/ http://www.redcode.nl/blog/2010/11/patent-infrigement-part-2...

Thanks for the link.

The result shows he did the right thing not complying, they had no legal grounds for their demands.

I find it absurd how they try to threaten people with their legal teams. They had nothing on you but didn't want you to release the code so they threw their legal team at you and made them come up with some bullshit. That's just ridiculous! Good for you for standing up against that crap.
