Matsushita is the name of a Japanese electronics company whose products often take samples from other products. When another product releases a product on the market, Matsushita will soon see the market response and modify its product so that its product has far more benefits than the product that releases it. Matsushita modification products often managed to take over the success of the initial production issued another brand.
By modifying the design of others, we can save time, research and development costs of long-term programs that cost very much.

Because if only imitate, in addition to constrained copyright also will not be useful.
