Kodak developed and marketed an instant picture system that they believed was not infringing on the Polaroid patent. When the patent case went to court, Kodak lost and they didn't appeal. They chose not to pursue the appeal not because they thought the judgement was correct, but because the market for instant cameras was rapidly going down the toilet. What's the point in pursuing a patent appeal for a market that was going away anyway?
