Literally never heard of the end user being billed for the codecs.

[Edit]: I think I should rephrase. Could I please be informed about how are codecs priced?

    Always have been. It's either included in licensing a software or operating systems. VLC ffmpeg and other open source software are a bit of a grey area since they don't make money from the software strictly speaking.
