chinese manufacturing firms do this to people all the time. a company will send them a product to make and that maunfacturer just makes their version right next to the poor sap that poured his heart and soul into the thing.

Honestly, I don't think this product failed just because of its price point; I think there wasn't consumer interest to begin with. Maybe it's bad marketing, and the new firm can overcome that. But my prediction is that this "new beginning" will gain no more traction than the first go around.
