Coca-Cola has filed a trademark infringement case against the operators of pornforacoke.com, which offers "tons of porn for the price of a daily glass of coke".

In full Coca-Cola livery, the very NSFW site boasts "more than 10,000 gigabytes of porn".

The case would seem to be an easy win for Coca-Cola, then. The drinks giant has fought dozens of domain trademark disputes at the World Intellectual Property Organisation over the years, and emerged victorious in most of them.

The case was flagged by friend of El Reg Kevin Murphy, of Domain Incite, on Twitter.

Lol, I'd sooner take the Coke :lol:

You'll have to do a blind tasting, just to be sure.

Blind tasting on a porn site? Have you thought that through? ;)

I can tell the difference between Coca Cola and Pepsi - for me, the former is "softer" and more flavourful, whereas the latter is "sharper", fizzier and hence I can't taste the cola flavouring as much. Goes for the other soft drinks from the companies that I've tried: Fanta v Tango, Sprite v 7-up etc

That's odd because I find it to be the other way around! I prefer Pepsi because it's softer, smoother and more flavoursome.

To me, Coke is a bit violent - it seems too fizzy and sharp. Having said that it is massively different depending upon how it is drank - post mix is my favourite, followed by glass bottles then plastic bottles and finally cans.

Pepsi seems more uniform to me.

I am with NIck. I prefer Pepsi, but it is very marginal, and for me not worth worrying about.

+1. Strange - I find the cans to be the "softest" and most flavoursome. The 2l bottles are soft though not as flavourful. The 500ml plastic bottles are very fizzy IMO - almost as much as Pepsi in a bottle!

I think the can somehow gives fizzy drinks an extra, erm, zing! :lol:

Face it ernie, Coke is too fizzy and has an inferior taste to Pepsi, which is both less fizzy and sweeter. Pepsi Max FTW ;)

How can that be un-american? Both Pepsi and Coke are US brands.
