Yeah, Trek2000 didn't really defend their mark too much. I suppose J&J probably does because I don't see anyone using Bandaid for non-J&J bandages, at least in the US.

Not for sales purposes, but I don't know what brand the bandaids I have in the cabinet are, but if i ask for one that's what I'll call them...

Sure. I wasn't commenting on colloquial speech, I was commenting on Amazon's listings.
