PALTO 1 , You said "I figure that it costs about 150k-300k in attorney fees (no litigation) to get 2-10 million licensing agreements. Obviously, if you have to litigate those costs take off, but having successfully settled major licenses companies should be much more willing to play nice"

Not all of infringers would easily bend over and accept license aggreement , most likely

you need to litigate good number of them one by one and as you know the latest

survey show much higher expense as following quote more than 4 million dollar
