    I have one of the JDS models of his amp; I like the technical performance, but the design is poor (the power, input and output are all on the same face, making it a real PITA to use.) I wondered about such a grievous misdesign, but now I read about the “no derivate works” and the light goes on.

    I get annoyed by design a lot, and I work at Apple. Idly, I wonder which direction the causality arrow points.

      What do you mean by that?

        Just that JDS felt they didn’t have the freedom to alter the layout, because of the license.
