Just putting an "i" in front of a word, e.g. iword shouldn't be a allowed a copyright, as was the case of anyhow, which was used in common everyday conversation, until a cigarette company had it copyrighted but people still used it, so a whole sentence had to be copyrighted. You may be the first to see my iword.

All of this Copyright nonsense is just another way for these greedy companies to make an extra buck. They're basically Patent Trolls.

what a pointless bunch these companies are.. Fujitsu never even registered the name because somebody else had it before tham.. hahahahaha
This is like me sueing a writer who has the same name as me for using my name on their books (which I could do as I have exactly the same name as a famous author, and I'm 3 years older) .. but I would expect it go get laughed right out of court..
It's time the courts started taking a very firm line with these big business time wasting lawyers.. like how about a $100 million fine for being pointless bastards and wasting everybodys time and trouble.

Foamy is awesome and his talents for that work rather well with the uber music store nazi. But then again he's more sane snob than nazi. LOL
Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.
