the success or failure of VOIP is dependent on inter operability. While I agree
that "free" is better than "pay", unfortunately, for now, one should
deploy
whatever codec is more popular. remember that the sdp protocol allows for codec
negotiation.

Quoting Juha Heinanen <jh(a)tutpro.com>om>:
the problem with BOTH g.723 and g.729 is that they are
not free and thus
cannot be included in free, open source sip UAs. for that reason, i
don't see any reason to favor their use. the free alternatives are iLBC
and speex.
