What's good for the Goose is good for the Gander

Sure, and they should. Of course, no one has yet and it's unlikely to occur. SEP
abuse has largely been constrained to those on Google's "side" (i.e.,
Google/Motorola themselves and Samsung).

The newest wave of litigation involving Nokia, HTC, LG, and others has some
potential for SEP abuse but not directed at Google and not as significant as the
abusive position that Google has been taking via Motorola.

The runaway success of Apple's iTunes is in part due to them paying
an unknown amount, but capped at $0.20 max. per copy, to MPEG-LA
for the software that they give away free. They get it back manifold
in sales of music and movies, which also carry a charge of about
a penny per copy. For good or evil the move has also
made h.264/aac an industry defacto standard.
