Do a google search on the phrase "copyright litigation strategic opportunities" and click on the PDF document or quick view of the sunstein law document.
Page 25 seems particularly suited to these situations, but the entire document is interesting.
has anyone tried seeking a declaratory judgment as soon as they got the demand notice and/or threat of suit?
see See PHC, Inc. v. Pioneer Healthcare, Inc., 75 F.3d 75, 77, 79 (1st Cir. 1996) referenced

also try a google search on "ELIMINATING VALUE OF INFRINGEMENT: AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS"
that documents makes for a good read also

I do agree with you. The "copyright litigation strategic opportunities" is particularly interesting. I didn't read it in detail but I did scan through it.

Its all a matter of costs. Most people don't want to file a declaratory judgment action because of the expense involved. We have done that in a number of contested IP cases with success but the Getty claims are small and dont merit that approach unless some passionate well-moneyed person gets the letter.
