P2P company Streamcast–the folks who own the file-swapping software Morpheus–is suing Skype and 21 other people and companies. The claim is a little convoluted: Streamcast says it had the right of first refusal to buy the FastTrack P2P technology developed by Kazaa, technology that Streamcast says forms the foundation of Skype. The founders of Kazaa sold the company and technology to Sharman Networks, instead, so Streamcast is suing for $4.2 billion. Not helping matters is the global nature of the claim. Streamcast is an American company. Kazaa is Dutch, and Skype (a division of eBay) is based in Luxembourg.
