No different than h264 in that regard. I'd rather we discuss the technical merits of this technology than have another patent debate. Not that I wouldn't agree, just that if you want to talk patent reform, it might be better suited to do so in a dedicated HN posting.

As far as encoding technology goes, this is pretty exciting. Looking forward to the first wave of 4K TVs & cell phone cameras hitting the market.

I'd love to chat with you about luma. My cofounder and I worked on something substantially similar before YC. Ping me at the email in my profile?

The "Get Luma" button on that page just kicks me to http://itunes.luma.com/ (the home page).
