To chip in, I believe that if LG win that patent dispute they can force Sony to remove the infringement or they can choose to license. I do not think they can be forced to license the patent. It may have some legal wording wrapping around that and one of those may be term "essential" but we can already see two definitions in this thread.
I am inclined to believe they would have to prove essential and I do not think a single product would be considered essential but that is for the legal beagles to work out. What I would say is that this scenario is unlikely but then that was before this whole thing became personal and LG upped the ante.
