There is already a technically superior, non-patent encumbered, world wide standard with ubiquitous silicon support: ISO/MPEG
Where did you get the idea that MPEG is not patent encumbered? It's been patented since MPEG 1.
Not to mention the impending MPEG4 patent licensing bomb that's coming up next year. Remember all those sites streaming MPEG4 for free (I'm looking at you YouTube). It's going to be very expensive to stream MPEG4 after 2010.
Now is the time to start converting all that content to free format.
