Dude, your argument that a lawsuit = legitimacy is flawed. Who has the time to chase down everyone who steals?
If someone, or say, a group of people not easily identifiable were using say... your logo on their sites or w/e equally valuable item you put money/time/energy into and it was affecting your business but not in a way that is directly measurable - would YOU spend 4-5 hours of each and every day tracking these people down, sending out notices & following up with a suit if they failed to comply?
Who has time for that!?
The bottom line is that this industry has been consuming itself for a very, very long time. We proved to ourselves time and again how divided we are, and how money is king in this business. There were people bitching about too much given away during pic tgp days, then movie tgp days that was the new end of the world...
It's like the corpse has long been dead on industry collectivism, and everyone just now is realizing it.
