Well, this guy kind of screwed up by backing down and giving up www.animecrash.net. It's well-documented, as he states, that domain names come on a first come, first serve basis. If he didn't want to give up animecrash.net he didn't have to (his hosting company should've known this, too).
The only way Anime Crash could've won that battle is if 1) He backed down (which he did), or 2) Paid him for the address (which he should've done).
His loss.
