Scare Tactics

Why do I think that this whole C&D scheme was a scare tactic with no real plans for lawsuits. They send out a bunch of C&D notices, claim success with an unspecified number of unnamed sites, and use that "success" to pressure other sites to cave. Not the brightest of plans, but then again this is coming from someone who used the phrase "shoot a gift horse in the mouth." (Why does that remind me of something the PHB would say on Dilbert?) The CEO again threatened lawsuits, but I somehow get the feeling that this is a toothless threat from a slimy company. (Oh, no. I called them "slimy." I am therefore disparaging the iDownload brand and might be sued by them!!! )

Because you've seen the Dilbert cartoon, and can actually -hear- the voice actor saying it? (I can, that's for sure!)

Or perhaps because this guy IS a PHB...
