For everyone who does not understand, what has happened here is that someone came up with an idea for a magic trick, and then someone made a different trick using the same basic strategy or concept. At less than 1/3 the total cost to the consumer. Nothing was actually copied, or else there would be a copyright violation.

Outside of magic circles, no one would be even slightly offended by something like this. This is how everything works in the real world -- someone comes up with an idea, other people produce similar products at a lower cost. The original idea here is a revision of a much older idea, in any case. MOABT is not a revolution in magic.

The magic community gets very worked up about this, but no one else would get this in the slightest. We live in a free market economy, where people have the right to make a living producing similar works at a more reasonable price.
