the mpeg-la already announced the final license terms and they seem to
be very reasonable and clearly arranged:
http://www.mpegla.com/news/n_03-11-17_avc.html
e.g.
For AVC video (either on physical media or ordered and paid for on
title-by-title basis, e.g., PPV, VOD, or digital download, where
viewer determines titles to be viewed or number of viewable titles are
otherwise limited), there are no royalties up to 12 minutes in length.
