Which big company do you think will be the next one to sign?

Dave, you were one of the first to sign weren't you? To call your partners blood suckers isn't very gentlemanly.

Still think they are blood sucking leaches.

Playboy has been targeted by Acacia, but not sued, but are in discussions.

I am sure Acacia is just salivating to get Playboy to settle so they can run their name through the PR grinder, just like they did with Hustler.

Also ICS Inc. (Adult.com/GFY) was served with a lawsuit on 12/18/03.... no word on whether they are joining the defense group, defending themselves, or settling.

Fight the Wondering!

That's horrible news. A lot of people were expecting the big mainstream companies to fight Acacia.

Well, after they saw the 100 odd adult companies roll over, why should they stand up? I bet they were saying the same things about us too

Those 100+ licenses are without names, so that wouldn't be too impressive to Disney and to other potential licensees.

I am sure Acacia was all to quick and proud to be able to showcase Hustler, being a very prominent and well known name.

It is a shame that one's company can be used as a poster boy, but the contractual agreement obviously allowed them to troll Hustler's name around.

I am sure they are not happy about this, it was their business decision to settle and probably wanting to move on and focus on making mo' money.

It's like when you are offered the choice of getting a lecture or a beating. Some would go for the beating to get it over with, since the lecture would just go on and on.

What's not fair, is if you end up getting the beating and the lecture.

Fight the Analogy!

Personally, I think signing on Hustler was one of their biggest moves. If Larry isn't going against them, why the hell should Disney? I've got hope that Bill has enough cash to smash them and I'm also hoping he's got servers+servers+servers of very old proof of when everything did show up and happen. Keeping my fingers crossed.

As for Disney, I won't be surprised when (what's his name?) Eisner gets fired from Disney, that he has a job signed, sealed with ACACIA (he's probably just waiting for the severance package to get ok'd) <---I'm MissFortuneTeller, and that's my prediction :-))
