The truth is usually just an excuse for a lack of imagination.

To be fair, if Nathen ever got the Hulkster on the phone it's totally believable that Hogan would immediately start ignoring Nathen in favor of gassing himself up.

Yeah I found that eminently believable, but the timeline is wrong, as Hogan won that suit in 2016, years before EGeez, so why would he be talking about having just gotten the money

First-mover benefits can be gleaned from disrupting spaces/markets that are stagnant, even if there is only a small inroad. Tesla did not make the first mass-produced electric automobile but was the first electric car manufacturer that reaped the benefits of disruption by becoming the sole defining brand in what was presumed at the time to be a niche space: saturation, goalpost establishment, and gathering customers who were previously unaddressed. People who buy a Tesla are not going to immediately buy a Prius and are removed from the customer pool of other competing companies who took years to catch up. Egeez has no product in a market that is universal, competitive, and has no glaring hole for it to fill, though, so it's just insane dogshit rambling.

He isn’t pushing it as a way for consumers to make money. It saves money for BRAND while reassuring consumers that they are only buying officially licensed merchandise

He sometimes does. The Iggy's website at one point and probably still does say it will be home to the lowest prices.

And as if the Hogan news wasn't good enough, his forehead got even bigger and he's taking a stand against the public domain.

PDF is an open format (kinda), he wants to make sure you only can get it if you have a licensed copy of Office.

LibreOffice and other GNUmonsters will not be available through Egeez.

At this point I don't believe Nathen has ever had any idea what Egeez is supposed to do.

Also :lol: is he going to program the app himself? Does he think software just kinda pops into existence if he wants it enough?

Personally I'm wondering who is going to do the immense data entry job that is entering all these products into his app. And who will manage updating it with new products when they come out.

Because new licensed merch is literally constantly being released, such that some of these companies themselves don't even have a central database of all this poo poo.

Can I make a shirt with a dramatic Freddy vs. Jason-style face-off with Evil Winnie the Pooh and Evil Mickey Mouse from their respective garbage cash grab horror films now

I am not a lawyer, but I think that since those versions of the character are transformative, they are covered under their own copyright, just as transformative Mickey Mouse iterations by Disney (like in Fantasia, for example) are still under copyright.

Now, if you create your own Evil A. A. Milne Winnie the Pooh and Evil Steamboat Willie Mickey Mouse, I think you’re in the clear, though Not In The Eyes Of Nathen.
