At the risk of beating a dead horse....I understand that Apple has a perpetual, worldwide license to use BMG for CE products and I assume that they can extend it to cover their suppliers like Foxconn BUT what happens if all of a sudden Apple decides that BMG will be fully implemented and that Foxconn (somewhere, maybe Wisconsin) needs to tool up. Foxconn would need to purchase some large number of machines...perhaps several hundred and they probably have only 2 choices...Eontec or Engel. Same situation with BMG alloy but the choices are Eontec or Materion. Is this something covered under the MTA umbrella? I doubt it.

The MTA licenses the technology royalty free but it ultimately has to be manufactured by someone else.

Just stirring the pot.
