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