Why do you say "follow the law"? Do you equate installing patent-encumbered codecs with breaking the law? This is just *plain* silly. There is so many *crap* patents out there (thanks a lot USPTO and EPO!), *anything* you install will infringe on a patent or another.
In any case software patents are illegal still in many places to begin with, even if the morons (curse be on their whole family) at the European Patent Office can make shit up as they go along that go directly against the treaty that founded it.
