Agreed. Obviously they have every right to do this, but what are these companies actually contributing to the crowdfunding community, outside of (seemingly) inferior products like the Nebula Capsule [0] or Opal Nugget Ice Maker [1]? Why do we need to sacrifice more of our sacred startup / maker spaces to megabrands?
