itsgareth said:Cheers nido. I'm not sure it's common knowledge but every book in the world has an ISBN number for which it can be found through databases:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ISBN
The barcode is a reference to this along with the obvious consumer connection. I'm praying this gets chosen.

itsgareth said:Hi,
Thanks for the report.
OK, copyright laws boil down to this: they stop people copying implementations of ideas or concepts.
Therefore, concepts and ideas cannot be copyrighted.
We're sorry, but the reported design doesn't have any part that has been directly copied from the original.
Therefore, there is nothing we can do about this.
We agree that coping a concept very closely isn't the best of practices however it is not illegal, so there is nothing we can do sorry.
If you require any more assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me again.
Regards,
Steven
