EXTRINSIC EVIDENCE: Expert testimony. Apple does not object to the phrase "an audio and/or video work" in Burst's proposed construction. Apple also agrees that the audio/video source information "has a temporal dimension" but believes this phrase is inherent and unnecessary. Apple does object to the phrase "can be received from one or more sources." APPLE'S CONSTRUCTION "audio/video" - agreed construction "audio/video source information" - the entirety of the data intended to be transmitted, not segments of that data.
