So ZapMedia Services, an Atlanta based company is suing Apple over alleged patent infringements regarding iTunes and the iPod. Now, maybe there is or is not a case…that remains to be seen. However, I can’t help but be a little sceptical when I try to get some information on ZapMedia Services (hey, I’m in Atlanta, maybe they’re someone I’d like to align myself with…you never know) and I find it a bit difficult to find information on the company rather quickly and easily. A Google search for “ZapMedia” and “ZapMedia Services” brings up the lawsuit from various publications, but finding information on the company itself (i.e., company website). Granted, I’m your typical American with a “I want it now” attention span and only checked the first page or two of results from Google, but still…
So just who is ZapMedia? Do they really have a case? Or are they just trying to cash in on Apple’s success?

I also had a hard time finding Zap on the web…best I can tell is they were a casualty of the post-bubble doldrums.
