Codecs are patentable and patented worldwide.
I'm not a lawyer --- but patents are not valid world-wide. Some countries
have mutual patent agreements, other countries haven't. Some countries
permit patents on everything, some are more restrict.
I didn't say one patent covered all the world. I said the patents on
codecs exist all over the world. WIPO is simplifying this a bit, but its
still pretty expensive to get a patent everywhere. I know of no country
where the key aspects of a codec cannot be patented.
