[MPEGIF Discuss] MP4 for internet downloads

[Benjamin Huot]

I have 12 MP4s available for Internet download on my personal website 
which I charge no money for. I used the encoder that comes with a 
legally purchased copy of iMovie which I am sure Apple paid for the 
encoder license. I am not streaming it or charging for users and they 
are my own productions - nobody else is getting paid for them either. I 
only have about 5,000 users a year visit my website and most don't 
download anything large like videos. These are just visual - no audio.
Regardless of how many people download my MP4s or how many I make if 
there is no money exchanging hands in the production or downloading of 
them, would I have to pay royalties? How long would this license be 
for?
thanks,
Ben
