   I think the Skype implementation is in fact complete, just not released yet.

   The codec itself is an entirely open standard, so no legal problems there. Whether there will be political pressure by major labels or Apple themselves remains to be seen. The benefits of Opus are huge, but then again, we got VHS, too.

   What I really like about Opus is that it provides excellent sound quality even at very low bitrates - and at very low latencies as well. Those two things really distinguish it from other lossy codecs, such as MP3 or AAC.
