any H.264-related patent royalties
The fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) royalty rate for Nokia s entire portfolio of video codec patents
allegedly essential to the H.264 standard may be
ZERO. Or at least not much more than that, unless Nokia stages an unprecedented turnaround in its SEP dispute with Chinese computer maker Lenovo.
When all is said and done, it s possible that a number of licensing executives in the industry will realize they shouldn t have met Nokia s H.264-related royalty demands: they should all have defended themselves like Lenovo. Now it s too late: license agreements generally don t allow a recovery of fees that could have been avoided by litigation. Don t feed the troll!
