They'll never get that kind of money. China should be paying the rest of the world for all the copyright infringement they do over there. So much piracy and thievery.

BeastOrange4457d ago

Maybe thats what America needs to do... sue itself and China to get out of debt over calling something a word......1.6 billion. sick.

Speed-Racer4457d ago

I guess they're account for lost potential sales or some bullcrap like that....but all the Chinese have been doing is copying western america and reselling it for cheaper (lower quality as well).

RonyDean4457d ago

I think what I need to do is just start trade marking ever word possible, then one day I will be RICH!

C_Menz4457d ago

Seems sort of dumb although the company does have the right of suing them if they still actually own the name. To me it Justin a bit stood on both sides... Apple for not being 100% in control of the name, and the other side for just filing a patent back then when they werent going to use the iPad name.

SilentNegotiator4457d ago (Edited 4457d ago )

China doesn't respect copyright law at all. Even if this company DOES have a good case (Like, IDK...video of Steve Jobs running out on a business deal and audio logs of him calling the others to say "Dude, I totally have an idea that we can steal!"), why should THEY get to reap the benefits of copy protection?

It's about time China follows some rules that the rest of the industrial countries do. They're treating employees like garbage and stealing ideas directly from others.

C_Menz4457d ago

It will never happen. China can do what it wants since it is vital to the global economy now. If a country(let's go with the U.S) starts to press to hard for China to follow many of the laws it breaks China could easily bring up the debt the U.S owes to China and also sever trade ties which would hurt the U.S and companies.

not gonna happen, china needs us as much as us needs china.

C_Menz4457d ago

I know it wouldn't happen, but if for some reason China was being backed into a corner to fall in line they would have to do just that. Either it would make other back off or we would have WW3.

TheFallenAngel4457d ago

You know thanks to the US, china is becoming rich. Without the US, china is nothing.

LightofDarkness4456d ago

China's wealth is based on US currency and assets, if they become devalued, so does China.
