We all know that big brand names has early access to new released domain names to protect their name and avoid domain squatting - they pay premium for that and this sounds fair. But its nothing illegal in having imdbxxx.com - which btw is still available. I might be wrong but if this is the case - imdb (in this case) should make sure that they own all domains , which might be associated with their brand (like imdbapi.com for example). Not securing them and requesting free transfer from anyone who dared to buy one isn't anything else but corporate bulling.
