Blizzard going to the courts again?

[Brista]

I strongly disagree.  This one's easy.

1) He's disputing an action that was taken by E-Bay which reserves all rights in this arena.  He hasn't a leg to stand on here.

2)  He's disputing conventional copyright laws.  His educational claim is ignorant (by which I mean his lawyer seems to have read the word "education" without looking at the specifics of an educational exception) and he is in absolute direct violation.

3)  The DMCA is pretty explicit on this one.  He has no rights in this space and in fact if Blizz wants to press it they can do bad things to him for this including both a civil suit and a criminal one.

I'd be interested to know if all the Windows for Dummies type books paid royalties to Microsoft. That seems directly comparable and is a well-established publishing market
