When MMC was first announced, I believe it was a joint development venture with Siemens. I think that they both produce it, and, I believe, they share royalties on it in some way. See sandisk.com. Extract: Originally conceived by Siemens, the MultiMediaCard has been jointly developed and will be produced by SanDisk and Siemens in both flash and ROM versions. SanDisk, the world?s leading supplier of flash data storage products, will manufacture the flash MultiMediaCard while Siemens, one of the world?s largest semiconductor companies, will produce the ROM-based MultiMediaCard.
