The lie is that Ogg is most likely also encumbered by patents. It just hasn’t been tested in court yet. That’s why companies such as Apple are wary of it.

As a matter of fact, if Apple (or microsoft, etc) did go ahead and implement Ogg as many FOSS fans are screaming for — then it most likely would result in a legal attack, taking Ogg away from the FOSS fans themselves (as much as it could be taken away). Is that what they want?
