Plenty of letters in the alphabet, even more words! It's not the name that makes the product.

Concentrate on building a kick-ass product! If anything, your app might get accidental exposure due to Rdio feature.

One thing you should not do if you don't have money to defend yourself is make potentially defamatory allegations ("[Company] just stole our name") when it could be "just a coincidence."

Because if it is just a coincidence, and [Company] can demonstrate that your allegation on a popular web forum has hurt its business, then [Company] can sue you for libel (the written form of slander).

You might consider posing your question in such a way that you do not actually name the company involved.

No such thing as bad publicity. You've got tamber.com, time to start getting your product out there and leverage off Rdio's less-than-friendly choice of product name.

Don't worry about it. As long as you started using it before them, there's really nothing Rdio can do to screw you, and I don't think there's much risk of confusion. And it's not like everyone are using Rdio anyway.

Focus on your own product, make it awesome! Don't spend time trying to find/worry about all the things that could possibly make you fail :)

You could call your company "Tambr", and hope Yahoo buys you and runs you into the ground!

Is tamber your Rdio username? username + FM = "A station personalized to your history and taste"

    Change your apps name. Not that big of a deal.

The name won't make or break your product/company. But getting distracted by this bullshit might. Not worth it.

Oh my god, they just stole my name for their new radio feature called "Jimmy FM" they stole that from me, I'm going to sue - my mother gave me that...

The most you can do is write a professional letter calling Rdio out on their tomfoolery and how disappointed you are in them. Aside from that, sueing them is really your only option.
