Since Google bought Moto the patent tax is pretty much dead, except for exFAT, which Microsoft convinced just about everybody from cameras to smartphones to implement. So the new Android devices won't have hdsc but cloud instead, because exFAT licensing is required to manage customer expectations if you have that media.

It won't always be so, but that's where we're at.
