Apple Extends Deadline for Burst.com

Apple has given Burst.com another month to respond to a federal court filing that asked a judge to preemptively invalidate claims by Burst.com that Apple is infringing on patents owned by the company. At issue are certain technologies within Apple's iPod player and iTunes software.

Burst and Apple attempted to negotiate a license fee two years ago, but talks broke down and Burst threatened to sue last year. Apple, in turn, went on the offensive and filed a declaratory relief complaint. In January, Burst said it intended to file a countersuit accusing Apple of patent infringement. Burst now has until March 20, 2006 to respond to Apple's complaint.
