MercedesShop.com mentioned in Book
I was reading "The Information" by James Gleick (a discussion of information technology). At one point in the book he talks about the ownership of names/words and gives a list of website names that were recovered by DB, including MercedesShop.com. I just thought it was interesting.

I was reading some old threads and saw Mercedes shop mentioned, but I went to it last night and saw it was owned by Mercedes now. What was it?

My understanding from skimming the verdict of the second lawsuit which was posted at one point was that because MBshop sold parts it stuck and MB had a case and won. If Mercedesshop.com was just a stand alone forum like say Benzworld, or MBworld it wouldn't have flown.
This is why you still see other Mercedes named forums around. BTW I still have a Mercedesshop grill badge and decal around here somewhere, waiting to go on my next MB.

The grill badge on the 300D is getting pretty worn, I will probably have to take it off at some point.
