    Literally never heard of the end user being billed for the codecs.

    [Edit]: I think I should rephrase. Could I please be informed about how are codecs priced?

      Always have been. It’s either included in licensing a software or operating systems. VLC ffmpeg and other open source software are a bit of a grey area since they don’t make money from the software strictly speaking.

        I wonder what are the ToS, is this $0.79 all that you have to pay to use it for commercial purposes?
