Its a onetime fee not a annual one.
There were times on the I2 when you could only shoot h264 without the raw license.
I was very surprised that they actually offered some ProRes422 right from the start. Thats good enough for many.
And for the others there's the raw license option, which was a no brainer for us to get right away and was planned into our budget.
Don't forget, Apple and Red want licening money to use their codecs and technics.
I don't even use ProRes raw because I prefer cndg way over it. Cdng is actually free to use. But implementing also needs manpower that needs to be paid.
Braw would be even be the better option than ProRes raw as more people are using it professionally.
I did not have a single production asking for ProRes raw in the past few years. They always choosed the cndg route.
But maybe it was part of the deal with apple to get some profits if they include ProRes raw.
