All photos will be added to the IPWatchdog Dog Wall at IPWatchdog Studios and will be added to the queue of images we select from each week. This week in Other Barks & Bites: Will Page's Global Value of Music Copyright report shows that industry revenues have doubled since 2015 despite slowing growth as pandemic impacts are no longer felt; the Federal Circuit rules that it lacks jurisdiction to hear an appeal of an $8 million bond set under an Idaho state law prohibiting bad faith patent assertions; Micron expects the market for high-bandwidth memory chips to reach $100 billion by 2018; Senators Peter Welch (D-VT) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) introduce the Visual Artists Copyright Reform Act into the U.S. Senate; the UK High Court issues a landmark decision finding that Nokia's offer of a license to video decoding SEPs conditioned upon entering arbitration does not meet RAND licensing obligations; and the EU's highest court okays a national procedural rule on copyright litigation requiring the participation of co-holders of copyright in infringement litigation involving those works."
"The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on Friday, December 19, upheld a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) finding for patent owner Smart Mobile Technologies, affirming the Board's decision that Apple had not shown Smart Mobile's claims to be unpatentable. The court agreed with the PTAB that Apple and Smart Mobile agreed upon the adopted claim construction and that substantial evidence supported its finding that the challenged claims had not been shown to be obvious over the prior art."

Micron projects the market for high-bandwidth memory chips to reach $100 billion by 2018. Senators Welch and Blackburn introduced the Visual Artists Copyright Reform Act. The UK High Court held that Nokia's conditional SEP license offer did not satisfy RAND obligations. The EU's highest court approved a national rule requiring co-holders to participate in copyright infringement litigation.
