Duplicate Station Names

[bobm]

I am quite surprised to see that someone took my original station name of Ultimate Oldies Radio and duplicated it not once, not twice, but FOUR times with corresponding stations on Shoutcast. I tried to contact these copycats to ask them to use their brain matter to find another handle, to no avail.

I wrote the Shoutcast 'legal' department to ask these duplicators to find another name instead of copying my handle. I got no response.

So, I suppose we're dealing with total anarchy here on the ol' Shoutcast network.

Maybe I can start a station and call it .977(0) The Hitts Channel and see how that goes over.

Yes indeedy, real original move there...'Ultimate Oldies' copiers.

Sorry for the rant, but what is the use of a name if others duplicate it.
