Has anyone stopped offering video?

Has anyone who runs a pay site in here stopped offering video? This is what I am considering doing .... dumping ALL video from my pay sites then mailing cds of all the videos which were available on my site to members who sign up. Every month mail them a new CD.

(1) Would they still have a case since I would no longer be using their technology?

(2) Would they still try to go after me for back licensing fees? Usually a patent owner or a copyright owner will give someone the opportunity to stop infringing before making them pay.

(3) If they did want royalties, would they want them based on my gross sales for the entire year or just for the six months I used video?

I realize that by doing this I would see a sharp decrease in memberships but I'd rather not make any money at all then pay them a fucking nickle. Besides, once their little patent is ruled invalid I will be coming after them for any and all lost revenues.
