You assume they only follow their brand name, they probably are following all related terms such as #headphones #headsets and contacting people. And this is something 1 person from a company can monitor at their desk or phone. There is software like TweetDeck where notification pop up.
Why don't you try Twitter before you bash it because it seems you don't know much about it. For instance. You add people you want to follow. Well, I don't follow spammers. Next, they can't contact you directly unless you add them. Next, spammers can follow you, but they still can't send you a message, they can mention your name, but unless you are are following yourself would not know. And, you can block them and report them as spam. I am following people like Peter Frampton and Lenny Kravitz and several NFL and ex-NFL players and writers.
BTW, I have over $500 in headphone equipment. Never seen a Skull Candy ad, and from the packaging I've seen and where I have seen them sold (a tee shirt job on the boardwalk in NJ), assumed they are garbage. Their target audience must be 16 year olds who are clueless from what I have seen of their product packaging and placement. And looking at that award they were named that by an accounting firm and was for the state of Utah, not that impressive. I thought is was from Entrepreneur magazine or the one FedEx does. And here's an article where Newt Gingrich gave the same type award inadvertently to a **** industry exec.

So many companies wasting time and resources with the latest fad rather than working on a real marketing campaign and listening to there target audience like Entrepreneur Magazines 'Entrepreneur of the year' Skullcandy, they understand marketing and know what there target audio wants. Twitter is internet texting, full of spam (which you pointed out) and you're limited to a few hundred letters. If said companies stopped wasting there time with these fads, answered there emails in a timely manner and were active on a few forums which in turn get indexed by google and the likes they would sell more headphones.
