    What's up with this URL? www.jblsucks.com

    http://www.jblsucks.com/home/product...=US&Region=USA

    or even just this one: http://jblsucks.com

    I don't get it. It came up in a Google search.

    Looks like Harman owns it, probably just to keep bashers from inhabiting.

    Or a white page that says, "No it doesn't."

    It's fairly common for companies to buy up domains like that. Less common to actually use them.

    They appear to be using relative addressing.

    So even if the pages come from http://www.jbl.com/car/products/defa...=US&Region=USA

    they appear to be coming from
    http://www.jblsucks.com/car/products...=US&Region=USA

    I would agree they should do something. A hard redirect to the correct home page. That would tick off the naysayers.
