- koolk3ychain 6y agoI patently disagree. Why would anyone with the requisite skills create something this complex knowing they'd never be compensated? Even if they attempted to leverage an open source "enterprise" licensing scheme big corps would likely just use an existing industry proven codec.
- Kaze404 6y agoBecause they want to? Sometimes that's all it takes. Besides, the proposed solution is being developed by multiple corporations who will profit precisely from not having to pay licensing anymore.
- einpoklum 6y agoI say otherwise. It is oppressive and immoral to try to prevent the use of technology by those who have not received permission to use it.
- Kaze404 6y agoI agree, and I'm glad people are taking steps to move away from that :)
