If you focus specifically on the sale, sure.

But if you look at what actually happens to the IP, there's a good argument that dolby has no right to any payment from a user that never touches their IP.

The license fee would be based upon the method of counting installed base. If Adobe wants to change the method of counting, Dolby should be allowed to change the fee.

Isn't the IP licensed in terms of sales (or revenue, or something similar) though? (I haven't looked up the specific license in this case.)
