I was wondering just how legal it is to use a registered trademark for a band name... I regularly see a band name on x or y compilation that is a registered trademark (ie: 68000, Pentium - processors; dbx, dnr - noise reduction systems) like in this case (Metal Masters is a tm of Sony for their ceramic casing based metal audio tapes). I also see the same thing for album names (TR-606, TB-303 as album names for the red and blue EPs for example). Sometimes it's only a part of the name which i guess is ok, since it's not the same thing (like juno reactor, 808 state). So what is acceptable?
