Other companies pay S3TC because they actually use S3TC (or DXT as it’s named under DirectX).

I will never again pay expensive retail prices at stores. I even sold a 46 inch HDTV to my boss for $650 and it only cost me $52.78 to get. Here is the website we using to get all this stuff, BidsNew.çom

Now will they pay, trade, or partner?

I haven’t heard S3 in quite a long time. If the likes of Microsoft and Sony already have this licensed it must be legitimate enough.

It will be interesting to see if Apple needlessly fights this in court, only to realize they will lose and license it like they did with Nokia.
