In case you care: MPEG 4
Quote: "MPEG LA, a group of patent holders governing MPEG-4, on Monday finalized licensing terms for the media delivery standard, bowing to market pressure for manageable royalty rates. "
Comment: We did quite a bit of work with streaming video this spring...the outcome of this (MPEG 4) is positive - however, it is just a matter of time before fees increase...and the streaming media field is too young for significant charges. Adoption would be stunted.
