<description><![CDATA[Seattle (WA) - Real Networks today said that it has filed a lawsuit against major Hollywood studios to protect its RealDVD software from potential legal actions of these studios. RealDVD is a software package that allows consumers to copy DVDs, but integrates the usual copy-protection that limits the use of those copies. We aren't quite sure why Hollywood would be upset about RealDVD, other than the fact that Real Networks may not pay enough license fees.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>
