I see several there, including one of my own, NewZunes.com. the best one I see in 1plus, in my opinion, starts with an "i". It is not mine.

Zune.Com was registered in 1998. I doubt MS will be able to ban others from using it, except in situations of clear, demonstrable financial injury and trademark infringement, subsequent.

Thanks, it looks just like the earlier leaked photos. I’d expect MS the make an official announcement for their complete for the device either tomorrow or next Friday. You have a nice site Static but your forum link returns an error.

Excellent point Vince, as Microsoft loves to tag their software products with that stamp. I could see a Zune Pro in the future.

Interesting to note:
After rumors on several websites and blogs, today EMI the worlds third largest music company confirmed that they have inked a deal with the Redmond company to provide preloaded music videos for the Zune.

Yeah, I’ love’em!

What a great name for a forum full of Zuniacs. They also lessen any possible legal issues (not that I’m saying there would be anyway) because they don’t incorporate the full mark of Zune.




With the way this thread has gone I wouldn’t be too surprised if –RJ- didn’t buy Zuniacs.com from you and use it to branch this thread off into its own separate forum.



Best wishes,
Kimmy

Heck, if -RJ- wants Zuniacs com to develop something with, he can have it, gratis- I'm easy. (Of course I would keep Zuniac Com for any overflow that might occur but, hey, I never said that I was perfect. Easy? Yes. Perfect or cheap? No.

Microsoft sues cyber-squatters
By Josephine Moulds


(Filed: 23/08/2006)

Microsoft has launched a new offensive against people registering internet domain names that contain the company's trademarked terms.

It has sued more than 200 of these so-called "cyber-squatters" or "typo-squatters" who use web addresses containing terms like Microsoft or slight misspellings of them.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=215759

Professional domain operations buy these sites, with names like microsoftrebate.com or xbox360com.com, and put pay-per-click advertisements on them.

Microsoft said more than 2,000 domains that contain Microsoft trademark terms are being registered each day.

Aaron Kornblum, the company's internet safety enforcement attorney, said: "Microsoft has witnessed a virtual land rush for Internet domain names with the goal of driving traffic for profit. "

The company claims these sites create "potential confusion for visitors to Microsoft's legitimate Web sites and illegal profiteering through the misuse of Microsoft's intellectual property".

Microsoft sued 217 unnamed defendants and is taking action to learn their identities. Separately it has filed two civil lawsuits against a total of four people allegedly profiting from domain names that infringe on Microsoft trademarks.

The litigation stems from a 1999 law called the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, which imposes a fine of up to $100,000 on anyone who, "registers, traffics in or uses a domain name that is identical to, confusingly similar or dilutive of" an existing trademark with a bad-faith intent to profit.

Microsoft noticed the surge in sites earlier this year during efforts to monitor "phishing" sites, which mimic bank and other corporate sites in an attempt to steal user identities.

Microsoft on Tuesday launched a new offensive against cybersquatters who allegedly gain illegal profits from thousands of Web sites, such as WindowsLiveTutorial.com and HaloChamp.com, that include the company's trademarked names.

you and Badger want credit for who posted it first

I was giving a synopsis and some advice that maybe this thread should be deleted or some of these domains.
