London courts rule in favor of common sense

The London High Court ruled against Apple Corp (the Beatles) and in favor of Apple Inc. over a trademark issue surrounding iTunes. The two had settled long ago over the use of the fruit logo, but the old Apple thought the new Apple was once again infringing on its trademark when it opened the iTunes Music Store. As I argued before, most people probably think iPods and Macs when they hear Apple, not the Beatles.
