Blue Jeans Cable and Monster

Permalink 06:13:33 pm, Categories: General  

Audioholics has a hilarious answer from Blue Jeans Cable, after Monster Cable (notorious for going after smaller companies) sent them a Cease-and-Desist letter:

Monster apparently missed that the Blue Jeans boss is a former lawyer ;)
Some nice quotes:

I do not compromise with bullies and I would rather spend fifty thousand dollars on defense than give you a dollar of unmerited settlement funds.
...
my observation has been that Monster Cable typically operates in a hit-and-run fashion. Your client threatens litigation, expecting the victim to panic and plead for mercy; and what follows is a quickie negotiation session that ends with payment and a licensing agreement.
...
Not only am I unintimidated by litigation; I sometimes rather miss it.

We need more people like Kurt Denke, the boss of Blue Jeans Cable.
