Moin,

noch letzte Woche bei der Mikro-Veranstaltung druckste der Frauenhofer 
herum, als ich ihn fragte, wann denn sein Laden anfangen würde auch für 
PLAYER Lizenzkohle einzutreiben. Nun geht es wohl los. Ein erster 
Freeware-Player hat seinen MP3-Support zurückgezogen, weil Frauenhofer & 
Co. Kohle haben wollten:


                                               Newsflash

Layer3 (mp3) support had to be removed due to licensing restrictions by 
the holders of the
mp3 patents. (Fraunhofer Institute and others.) Shareware and Freeware 
authors would
have to pay large sums to keep using mp3. Therefore I removed all support 
for mp3. There
is only little benefit from using mp3 anyway. For most purposes, mp2 is 
sufficient. Don't
pay anything for mp3 tools, use mp2 tools instead!

Sieht ganz so aus, als ob die guten Zeiten vorbei sind. Intellectual 
Property rules the world. MP3 dürfte nach seinem Höhenflug einen 
kräftigen Sturzflug vor sich haben
