It may be in someone’s self interest to make anything that any of us do zero cost, at which point we do not have a business model for living (other than some form of the dole contingent on agreeing to whatever conditions put thereupon). To the extent that Dolby creates value and reasonably licenses their development I think the employees of Dolby have a better claim to a fair living than a pure patent troll or an ad farm.

You know we could make it so that living does not require "business model".

I also know that we could put pigs on airplanes. Google is still an ad farm that isn't creating new value for anyone other than Google in this case.
