I don't know it especially for codecs, but for pirate copies. In Germany there were lawyers that did nothing else, but check up and downloads. These lawyers reports the up and downloading people behind the IPs. The law courts were overwhelmed with inquiries, that's why the state of Germany I'm living in, only gets active against pirate copying, if someone do it as a business or if it's possible to prove by the layers, by checking the IPs, that you downloaded material for several thousands of Euro. If it's proven that you did pirate coping for several hundreds of Euro and someone reports you, nothing will happen. There are a lot links on German in the net about this issue, like this one: http://www.rp-online.de/public/article/digitale/internet/597565/Freibrief-fuer-illegale-Downloads.html (Maybe not interesting for you, but it might be for some German speaking people) In some and perhaps in all states of Germany it's pirate copying is really tolerated and I won't belief it will be different for codecs, that coast less than several thousands of Euro.
