Lets be honest here...the purpose of trademark registration is to avoid brand confusion within an industry by use of similar product identifiers.

Homegrown built their business on amateur adult video and you try to launch homegrownamateurs.com and pretend to be surprised by this? This is CLEARLY an effort to misidentify your product with theirs.

giving you the benefit of the doubt maybe you had no idea that homegrown video exists or maybe you thought they didnt register the trademark (which wouldnt nullify their claim anyway) but as is said...ignorance of the law is no excuse.

give it up and be glad they arent asking for compensatory damages.
