Uhm, yeah. Remember that basically Divx is MPEG4 - which is tied up in
the biggest set of patents and everything else that I've ever seen.=20
They're trying to figure out how to charge $0.10 a player for using the
standard alone. Just because some people are willing to break the law
to bring that to Linux doesn't make it a good format. Actually, there
are very few good, modern video formats for Linux. Probably MPEG2 is
best, I think all the basic patents there have expired.
