Discussion: Ultracade and the Mame Trademark
1UP:
Looks like Foley may have stolen more than the MAME name...

I can see it now...Ultracade launches its iROMSTM sevice, and gets served by Apple:
"Dear Mr. Foley,
You are in violation of our trademark on the lowercase letter "iTM".

Petition anyone?

Generally it's considered OK to make a backup with the intention that it is only to be used to replace the original software in its original format in the case of corruption or loss. It is generally suggested that the use of that backup on another platform is not legal. Nintendo SPECIFICALLY states that you do not have that right with their dvd and cartridge media, however. Their stance is generally pretty hostile to emulation.
Basically point by point, Nintendo bashes every thing about emulation in no uncertain terms.
