I'm a litlle disheartened to read that, to be honest, speaking as someone who respects the copyright of others, and would in turn like mine respected. A copyright holder does have the right to determine how their intellectual property is used, and trademarks / brand names are considered intellectual property.
I do personally think some companies take it too far, and base their protective actions on greed etc, some are even rather unethical even though they work within the confines of the law, but what I think about their actions makes no practical difference to the reality of what is or isn't allowed, and I wouldn't demand or insist on the right to infringe on other's rights just because I personally think it isn't right that I can't.
