<< Amati had likely initially tried to gouge ADI, and ADI balked. AMTX knowing that they could make it happen at the right price (read in ADI's "not much" comment here), they probably saw it was in their interest to license at ADI's price. >>

alternately: ADI tried to bluff AMTX for as long as it could, but once ADI actually started shipping chips they had no choice but to license from AMTX.

"gouge" is a pretty loaded word. got anything to back it up or are you just trying to get people's goat?
