- mikeryan 16y agoH.264 could also be considered a lawsuit waiting to happen It could be and its been challenged at least once in the past (however Qualcomm lost that challenge), but though its not free, its patent restrictions are pretty clear and tested. It is 7 years old. While stranger things have happened, its very unlikely that as a licensee of H.264 you are going to be sued. WebM's status is not as clear, sometimes you choose the devil you know.
