+               <description>&lt;p&gt;In &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.idg.no/computerworld/article243690.ece&quot;&gt;an
+article today&lt;/a&gt; published by Computerworld Norway, the photographer
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.urke.com/eirik/&quot;&gt;Eirik Helland Urke&lt;/a&gt; reports
+that the video editor application included with
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-one-x/#specs&quot;&gt;HTC One
+X&lt;/a&gt; have some quite surprising terms of use.  The article is mostly
+based on the twitter message from mister Urke, stating:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://twitter.com/urke/status/194062269724897280&quot;&gt;Drøy
+brukeravtale: HTC kan bruke MINE redigerte videoer kommersielt. Selv
+kan jeg KUN bruke dem privat&lt;/a&gt;&quot;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I quickly translated it to this English message:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&quot;Arrogant user agreement: HTC can use MY edited videos
+commercially.  Although I can ONLY use them privately.&quot;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve been unable to find the text of the license term myself, but
+suspect it is a variation of the MPEG-LA terms I
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Terms_of_use_for_video_produced_by_a_Canon_IXUS_130_digital_camera.html&quot;&gt;discovered
+with my Canon IXUS 130&lt;/a&gt;.  The HTC One X specification specifies that
+the recording format of the phone is .amr for audio and .mp3 for
+video.  AMR is
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_Multi-Rate_audio_codec#Licensing_and_patent_issues&quot;&gt;Adaptive
+Multi-Rate audio codec&lt;/a&gt; with patents which according to the
+Wikipedia article require an license agreement with
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.voiceage.com/&quot;&gt;VoiceAge&lt;/a&gt;.  MP4 is
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Patent_licensing&quot;&gt;MPEG4 with
+H.264&lt;/a&gt;, which according to Wikipedia require a licence agreement
+with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mpegla.com/&quot;&gt;MPEG-LA&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I know why I prefer
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.digistan.org/open-standard:definition&quot;&gt;free and open
+standards&lt;/a&gt; also for video.&lt;/p&gt;
