Somehow I am not surprised, companies like to try to limit any companies with similar names... The poster company for this is monster cable.

There is also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monster...Notable_events

And check out www.nissan.com, another example.

Somehow I am not surprised.

Check out the response to one of Monster Cable's frivolous cease-and-desist letters.

I look forward to this claim being similarly resolved.
