Copyright Infringement involves engaging in one of the practices that are exclusively reserved for a copyright owner or a violation of the rights secured by a copyright, without a license to do so.

The term Coke™ is trademarked. Also trademarked is Coke Studios™; coincidentally, V-Ego™ is also trademarked. Using these names or items in a fashion that is not per the owners request can result in a lawsuit; i.e. registering a domain with one of those terms.

Upon discovery of said infringement, Coca-Cola™ can choose one of two options. Provide proper licenses to allow the user continued use of said trademark, or sue the shit out of 'em. In this case, they chose the latter.
If CokeStudios.org got sued for Copyright Infringement, I think MyCoke.org should fucking get sued, isn't that copyright too? i dont get that
