[Live-devel] using live555 with iOS

I'm trying to decode some H.264 and AAC. It seems like live555 would be
ideal for this task, but I'm getting mixed advice about LGPL under iOS
for paid AppStore Apps.
I get the impression many developers are just including live555
regardless in their paid apps, which puts me at a huge disadvantage. Is
there something about LGPL that I'm missing that does allow inclusion of
live555 in such a project? I don't want to distribute my source, and
distributing my .o files seems like cheating the licensing, since I
can't imagine anyone being able to reconstruct the app in any meaningful
way without jail-breaking a device.
I really appreciate the efforts involved in open source having
contributed myself to some projects. So I don't want to be another
developer just embedding it regardless.
TIA for any advice. Peter.
