Disarm you with a lawsuit

Crime - Law

Entertainment

The Smashing Pumpkins are suing their record label of 17 years. The band says Virgin Records illegally used the Pumpkins name and music in a Pepsi promotion with Amazon.com. The lawsuit says Virgin only has permission to sell digital downloads of the band's songs. And that using the Smashing Pumpkins name to sell other things threatens their reputation for artistic integrity.
