Food for thought:
From the beginning TPL did not want to announce the $ amount of license deals. Just who were they trying to keep that amount from? New potential licensees, as claimed? They could have gotten on the phone and found out that information. We now know that they were claiming to charge more for the Flash portfolio than they were collecting from the licensee and using the extra MMP portfolio money for whatever. That didn't work because someone went public. So now they are trying what you propose. Is there anyone who thinks that PTSC didn't know what was going on all along?. Please stand and reveal your gullible self. Remember, PTSC did nothing until Barco went public, and stupidity is not a crime.
