According to Christina Bonner, licensing coordinator for AAC - Dolby takes EVERY use of unlicensed AAC technology as "patent infringement" - even if you are making your own AAC implemetion without their license :) Of course, this is their own view of things and probably it is a pure nonsense from the legal point of view, but... I would be very careful and ask for an advise of some very good lawyer, with strong background in this kind of patents. Since Alexander Lerch has problems with other company, maybe they have different opinion on source code distribution, who knows.. and patent law in Canada might be different from one in the U.S. -- Ivan _______________________________________________ mp3encoder mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://minnie.tuhs.org/mailman/listinfo/mp3encoder
