Nearly all media formats contain various patented intellectual 
property.  So do many streaming algorithms.   For instance, all the 
various MPEG layers are full of patented IP.

Seems like the real agenda is to force the EU to use Ogg Vorbis or 
something equally obscure, so that the windows/mac world has to suffer 
through as much complexity as the FOSS world is used to.
