So I was checking across my usual blogs that I read everyday, Lifehacker and Consumerist, and they had this interesting article. Now it has been a while since they posted a story about that company, but it reminded me about why I will never, ever, ever buy anything from them. Just reading about it just gets me so frustrated, so writing about them is kind of helping me to vent out. I just really don't understand how this is even able to proceed to court. Obviously something is wrong with the justice system and copyright infringement laws. I mean who the hell in their right mind cannot REASONABLY differentiate between AV cables and mini-golf.
One thing that did put a smile on my face was this article. I'm glad that someone was able to stand up to that ridiculous company. It is just absurd in my mind how it works. And their products are ridiculously marked up, upwards of 1000% sometimes. So please please please do not purchase anything made by them. There really is no reason, unless you got it for free somehow, in which case I would just not use it. And if you really need cables, I would say purchase them from monoprice, an amazing site that sells pretty much any kind of cable that you need, and more. Plus shipping to Hawaii is actually pretty decently priced.
