Heh maybe not Curry in this case, as he's the one who took a magazine to court for using a creative commons-licensed photo of his without permission.
I am totally amazed podtech havent attempted to present their case, or a part of it, in public. Really crappy and unprofessional, I dont know what excuse you have, but going on about how much good you do for vloggers is no defense, its wound me up the wrong way (easily done, it has to be said). Shame, shame, and how come you guys dont seem to have any?
