Yeah, but why LG would rush into paying for the license if the patent will become free as soon as Samsung will pay to license it first?

Point is, the original idea of tying patents to revenues needs more thinking.

Because Samsung will use LG ideas too. As a company, I think, it is better to partner with others, so it is a win-win.
