This is getting to the point where it really isn't funny...
I'm not sure people who don't work in the hardware industry always see this point, but ripping off the designs of others costs us all in the long run. If financiers consider that a product is destined to be ripped-off, they are unlikely to provide funding for the venture... By definition, it is usually the small, independent OEMs that break new ground, and obviously, they are the ones least able to afford court proceedings to protect their IP.
Uli Beh is truly a morally bankrupt person... I only wish I could afford the time to set up some kind of "protest site" to shame the company... His ripoffs run into TENS of pieces now.
Check this link:
"He's an unbelievable thief..." (scroll down).
Joke all you like about Uli, but his presence in the audio industry does no-one any favours at all. As previously stated in the thread, Beh's units are "false economy" - after a short time people realise they would've been better off spending the extra on the original (akin to those "value" lines you see in the supermarket - the cheesecake is half price, yet contains far less than half the ingredients of the premium cake).
If anyone wants to register "Behringersucks.com" I'd be pleased to supply comparisons. We had a thread here recently where all kinds of Beh copies came out of the woodwork....
