Are you happy with MPEG standards?
To a certain extent, MPEG strengths are also part of its weaknesses: Many standards failed from being successful since the standard objectives had not reached the expected level of maturity for an optimal selection of the technologies and their widespread understanding to promote later the standard deployment. Thus too few players looked into too many problems. MPEG sometimes also refrained from supporting change of paradigms (for relatively short-sighted commercial reasons or “easy” return upon limited investment)
Do you think MPEG standards are the right choice?
In some domains they have proven so
What do you expect from MPEG in the future?
More thinking before undertaking a fast track to reach IS.
