According to IGN, back in December, Sony went after LG for some apparent patent infringements on some of their mobile devices. LG has responded by claiming Sony infringed upon 8 of their patents; 4 for HDTVs and 4 for Blu-Ray devices (including the PS3).
“Official documents reveal that the infringements centre around “the reproduction of data recorded on Blu-ray Disc media.” “

What’s in it for them?
Doesn’t seem like a very grounded accusation.

Don’t believe there is a question about them trying to block. They are in FACT going to the trade commission and want the PS3 blocked from selling in the USA.

I read on wired.com that LG is saying that the PS3 violates 2 patents.
