    Okay, Nixon Peabody, so you made a song. The song says: “we are awesome!” Then someone found the song and put it somewhere lots of people heard it. And you complained about it? That is free advertising! You weren’t going to charge anyone to hear it. And you threatened to sue them for it?

    I know a few hundred local businesses with just as bad theme songs on the radio who would kill for someone to give it national coverage. There’s no conceivable way this harmed the company at all.
