UTube Sues YouTube
A dealer of used tube and pipe equipment has filed a lawsuit hoping to strip YouTube of its domain name.
Universal Tube and Rollform Equipment Corp, based Ohio, says that confusion between its website, utube.com, and youtube.com is damaging its reputation and costing the company thousands of dollars.
Since Google announced in early October that it plans to purchase YouTube, visitors to utube.com have skyrocketed, from a few thousand per month to more than 70,000 per day, Universal Tube said in its suit.
That extra traffic has crashed Universal Tube's servers several times forcing the company to switch Internet service providers, at an additional monthly cost, in order to handle the increased traffic.

These Guys from UTube.com should sell their domain name to Google or at least take adventages from all that incredible traffic. How many times in your life could you have this kind of opportunity?
