Exactly, people here need to take a chill pill. There's no money in play here. Twitter / Vine have other fish to fry.

I bought VineFeed.com and VinePlayer.com awhile ago. The ToS (at least when I read it) said not to use the Vine name in domain names, so I put that on the backburner. I had wanted to make a couple of sites similar to Vine-videos.com though. I could see Vine bullying people in the future who use it in their name, even after being able to know a site is using it from referral / API data - and allow a site to grow large and then hit them with a "give this to us or we'll sue." If anyone wanted to partner and use the domains though I'd be up for it.
They're ranking 2nd on Google for the term 'vine', and even have the Vine logo as their favicon and next to their listing!
