MPEG LA on Tuesday defended the plan.
"We´re optimistic that the use fee can work, and we´re very thankful for the feedback that we´re getting from Apple and the marketplace because we think that we can work with everyone to come forth with a solution," said Larry Horn, vice president of licensing and business development at MPEG LA.
"A use fee is fair," he added. "The marketplace recognizes the role that intellectual property rights play in the development of these technologies, and the good news is that the market understands the need for it to be respected and paid for."
Horn said MPEG LA hopes to finalize its licensing model in the next 3 to 5 months.
