Beatles Bite Apple

blamanj writes "Apple Computer, which once got into hot water with the Beatles Apple record label, has been sued once again by the same group. Apple Records says iTunes and the iPod violate the previous agreement." Apple's broke their agreement in the past when speakers were first used with their computers to play music.

    I am a homosexual. I bought an Apple computer because of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such as myself. I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to young boys. Thanks in advance.

    with much gayness,

    Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day, S.J.

    Dear Father O'Day:
    Thanks for your letter. Being Catholic myself, I know exactly what you're talking about! It has always been our plan here at Apple Computer Inc to revolutionize personal computing with our high-quality and highly gay products.

    I'm happy to answer your letter by letting you know that YES we will be releasing an entire hLife ("homo-life") software line. You'll be able to recognize it in stores by the small stylized logo depicting a large cock entering a tight anus with an Apple logo on it. ("Suddenly it all comes together" indeed!).

    Anyway, I hope you and other members of our community will join us on our mission, and purchase the exciting new hLife boxed set. Only the boxed set comes with translucent cock rings!

    Sincerely,

    Harry Rodman
    Vice-president
    Homosexual Liaison Services
    Apple Computer, Inc.

    No Spy Hunter I expect Apple to honor the LEGAL BINDING agreements or get the fuck sued outta them. What part of this do you not understand NIMB-ROD. Apple Corp made an agreement and is simply defending its portion of the agreement. You may not like the agreement, TUFF SHIT. It was made by Apple Computers and will have to be honored by Apple Computer. And yes they may well have to give up this business since they have no legal right to be in the section of business. (THEY AGREED NOT TO ENTER INTO THIS BUSINESS!!) It is really that simple and it is really gonna cost Apple some $$$$ (or if Apple Corp is still willing to be reasonable a % of the business) Dont go bitching about Apple Corp on this one, they are in the right, and the simple fact is, Apple probably should have found a different name rather then sign away these areas, but they did and thats history. Now they must live with it. God Damnit, is it always this way on /. no matter how wrong the local favorite is, the /.'s will just find a way to make the other side wrong. A lot of you people really need to wake the fuck up.

    Isn't it absurd that a company that hasn't done anything recently other than file lawsuits has a reasonable chance of prevailing in the courts? No, I'm not talking about SCO, who has little chance of winning. Lots of people remember the Beatles but who gives a damn about their former record label? Oh, yeah, the RIAA, I forgot. Funny how it all comes together sometimes. Or maybe not so funny...
