It doesn't matter. I don't know how to qualify that speech but if you said
it at your site at tide.com you would be trading on Tide's trademark and if
you made that statement at cavebear.com or tide.sucks or tide.crimson or
tide.insane you wouldn't. And if you sold counterfeit Tide at tide.sucks
then Tide could go after you and not involve any kind of ADR - it wouldn't
be a DN case.
I would very much like to hear an operatic reading of the Feynman Lectures,
which, I assume, would have a score played completely by bongos.
