Say you were self employed and you created a product and called it a widgit.  You spent thousands of dollars on research and development and use only the finest materials to make your product.  You have built a reputation for having a quality product that is in demand.  Then comes along some schmo that just goes out and buys one of your widgits.  He just makes a copy of it,(no money spent on r&d).  Uses inferior materials and calls it a widgedt. He sells it for a lower price and cuts into your earnings.  Do you think you may be a little pissed off??
