Why has Audioholics been posting fewer reviews and videos lately? After 26 years of helping consumers separate audio facts from marketing hype, we're facing a battle we never expected.
A seemingly harmless Facebook post has landed us in federal court, while years of copyright infringement demands have drained tens of thousands of dollars and countless hours away from producing content.
How did sharing a home theater photo turn into such an expensive legal nightmare? And why are independent content creators increasingly vulnerable?
I explain what's happening behind the scenes, the toll it's taking on Audioholics, and why this issue should concern every content creator.

If the argument is that copyrighted material can sometimes appear incidentally within someone else's work without permission, where should that line be drawn for people sharing images online?
I'm not claiming the photographer infringed anyone's copyright — that's a legal determination. But given the allegations being made against Audioholics, I think it's a fair and relevant question worth asking.
