As you point out, their stance of not charging royalties until 2016 is merely a promise not to ALSO charge you a THIRD license fee for actually transferring the data you paid to be allowed to encode to someone who paid to be allowed to decode it.

The patents and dangling threat of a patent lawsiege[1] still makes it difficult for individuals to participate in web video if h.264 is the codec used.

[1]I like to call it “lawsiege” since the idea is a wealthy corporation can afford to bottle up an opponent with hostile lawyers until their opponent runs out of money to fight and has to give in without getting through the trial.
