Shocking, its probably cost him £5k+ to get a domain back that should never have been taken away in the first place!

Well done to TWS and Jim Davies on the result.

Agreed. I can't believe this was taken away in the first place, and awarded to a company/name that didn't even exist when the domain was registered. News Corp & to a certain extent nominet should be ashamed.

Great to hear that the domain name is back in the hands of the original owner.

Let's hope Myspace's lawyers dont use their might and begin a passing off case in the courts.
