"We feel this is a clear infringement of our intellectual-property rights," said Isa Dick Hackett, a daughter of Mr. Dick and the chief executive of Electric Shepherd Productions, an arm of the Dick estate devoted to adapting the late author's works.


Electric Shepherd Productions??? Are they the parent company of Electric Sheep???

What difference does it make!?

The difference between whether they should be allowed to sell it or stick to fandom.
