so here’s the thing that kinda bug’s me about these companies making products to compliment the product red line: are they, in fact, also donating money to support the product red movement?

I was just thinking that! I don’t think they are. They are just trying to capitalize from a charitable foundation. Basically, they are using charity to make their own money. Sigh.

...they are using charity to make their own money.
Perhaps, but at the same time (Product) Red doesn’t exactly own the rights to the color. Plus, red cases and other accessories by other manufacturers have been around longer than the (Product) Red promotion has been in operation.
Moreover, nowhere on Tuneware’s website do they ever associate their red-colored products in any way with the (Product) Red campaign; that association—or the lack of such—is entirely up to outside observers and consumers.
