Según Götz en Slashdot: Los términos de licencia de Thomson and y Fraunhofer Gesellschaft (los cuales son los propietarios de las patentes del mp3) han cambiado. Ahora no solo los codificadores en mp3 van a requerir una licencia, si no que también la requerirán los decodificadores. Está página http://www.mp3licensing.com/royalty/software.html lista las tarifas, ahora son 0.75$ por decodificador. Debido a ello, Red Hat acaba de eliminar todos los reproductores de mp3 en su versión de Rawhide (Fedora).
On April 23, 2017, Technicolor's mp3 licensing program for certain mp3 related patents and software of Technicolor and Fraunhofer IIS has been terminated.
We thank all of our licensees for their great support in making mp3 the defacto audio codec in the world, during the past two decades.
The development of mp3 started in the late 80s at Fraunhofer IIS, based on previous development results at the University Erlangen-Nuremberg. Although there are more efficient audio codecs with advanced features available today, mp3 is still very popular amongst consumers. However, most state-of-the-art media services such as streaming or TV and radio broadcasting use modern ISO-MPEG codecs such as the AAC family or in the future MPEG-H. Those technologies, that have been developed with major contributions from Fraunhofer IIS, can deliver more features and a higher audio quality at much lower bitrates compared to mp3.
Further details about the termination of the mp3 licensing program by Technicolor and Fraunhofer are availabl

El meneo es una entrada de un foro publicada en 2002.
Mandar un post sin tan siquiera mirar la fecha... y además ni sabiendo que el mp3 es libre desde el 2017
Ostras, pues la descarto. Ya decía yo que tenía el timeline raro. Mis disculpas.
Pues no se descartarla, que lo haga un@admin que hoy ando espeso.
Hostia, del 2002, esto puede ser récord de ida de pinza temporal en Menéame
Vaya, slashdot si que sigue vivo (snif)
Mientras se puedan seguir utilizando los antiguos...
