I think only a few among shh here realise how valuable Psy patents are. Here are some articles to whet your appetites.
If you hold the right patents, they are wroth their weight in gold - collecting annual royalties for the billions of units of devices using the patents.
Hold tight to your shares. Have fun! Dyor.
