[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 285183, member: 134"] Bob is a ****e business man and clearly didn’t either a) budget correctly, b) market correctly, c) over estimated his customers, or d) built a crap game and no one wanted to play it. He’s on the hook for it, he took the gamble. Again, this is not a digital only scenario. Plenty of businesses fail for similar reasons. You keep focusing on Bob, but you never put yourself in the position of company A. As was pointed out by someone else, if granting your license to be used by someone else means they get to do so forever, you’d never grant that permission or you’d ask an astronomically high price to cover the fact there won’t be another ‘Bob’ to come along who’d wanna make the same thing. I suppose you despise patent and copyright laws too? [/QUOTE]
