| COKTOE said: Sky TV is suing over syndycated broadcast rights to The Cosby Show, which was purchased by Hello Games for ( an understandably ) low price, which undercuts the deal Sky currently has with NBC/Bill Cosby. I said currently because Sky claims they STILL have a year left on their contract. The other issues are a clause that Sky has that A: Gives them matching rights, and more importanly B: First crack at the contract when it expires. |
Where have you heard this from? Why on earth would Hello Games purchase the Cosby Show?

Wait what lol where is sky tv mentioned in the OP? I had no idea they had a prior suit, and from a cable provider no less.

It seems that this information caught you off guard as well. First I'm hearing of it
To all: OMG. Very sorry. I thought Ka-pi96 was having a bit of fun with us, so I responded in kind. Total BS. Again, sorry.

It wasn't mentioned in the OP but Sky sued them over their use of the word Sky, strangely enough that BS about the Cosby Show actually sounds more believable than a company being sued over using a standard English language word, but those are the times we live in I guess. |
Well he fabricated a story about the Cosby show so bizarre that it was extremely believable albeit very confusing lol

Isn't it a Dutch company suing a British developer?
Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Oh.
I'm just so used to seeing American companies suing each other that I immediately assumed it was an American company suing the developers of No Man's Sky

The same way you can patent chemical formulas. Those things don't come from nothing and there is some serious work and thought behind it.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
