Wrong fella, how do you think they worked out how to encode? They wouldn't
pay for the  patent license nor would they have access to the source code,
so there is only one way, - ice it, however, they aren't going to put that
on the site are they - it's illegal to do it... And believe me it's not
industry standard - 20yrs vs a quick blast in google...I don't know any
proffessional company that uses it.
