Has PlayMedia Systems (PMS) sent us a cease and desist? If not, I suggest that we ignore it until that happens. [However, if it does, we will have to move quickly to remove|rename it.] Alternatively, take whatever steps seem appropriate to make a stub package that depends on zinf (zinf is not freeamp?) so people aren't adversely affected by PMS defending their trademark.
