Maybe he is just waiting for the right investor that has a purpose for the codec so he can reinburse his time investment.

Making it opensource now would just ruin that leverage.

Looking at history, it seems trying to build a business model around a codec doesn't tend to work out very well. It's not clear what the investor would be investing in. It's a better horse.
