Nine months after suing online video measurement firm ComScore for alleged patent infringement, Nielsen said Wednesday that it reached a settlement with ComScore that will see it pick up $19 million in restricted stock from ComScore.

Nielsen, which faces increased competition in the multiplatform video measurement sector from ComScore and Rentrak, said it signed a cross-licensing deal with ComScore as part of the settlement. ComScore also agreed to give Nielsen a worldwide license for four of the patents that ComScore had asserted in the litigation. Nielsen had accused ComScore of violating patents that it owns relating to online video measurement.
