Patent dispute: Amazon can not provide Prime Video in Germany in earlier type | EUROtoday

In a patent dispute with a Nokia daughter, Amazon needed to take a defeat. The district courtroom of Düsseldorf gave an injunction from Alcatel-Lucent on Friday. Amazon is due to this fact not allowed to supply its streaming service Prime Video in Germany in its earlier type. Otherwise there’s a penalty of as much as 250,000 euros or orderly for every infringement. The judges rejected one other Nokia lawsuit towards the US group. The US group is alleged to have violated a patent of Nokia that comprises the streaming mechanism utilized by Prime Video.

Nokia welcomed the courtroom’s choice. “We hope that Amazon accepts his obligations and agrees to a license agreement on fair conditions.” Amazon was initially unavailable for a remark. First, the “Wirtschaftswoche” had reported on the case.
