This seems really out of sorts for higher education, Harvard in particular. Do their lawyers-in-training need more cases? I must admit, I would by tickets to MPAA v. Harvard. Or maybe by then I'll just watch it on "Harvard TV".
Looking through tech glasses, their give-to-get algorithm and "bartercast" algorithms could be fun to write, but they don't feel new or novel.
