Apple Sues Over iGasm Ads

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the too-hot-to-rock dept.

funkeymonkeyman writes "Apple is less than pleased with an interesting new peripheral for the iPod which promises to 'take your appreciation of music to a whole new level.' Legal action has been taken against Ann Summers, the manufacturers of the new device, specifically for the similarity of the iGasm advertisements to the iconic iPod silhouette ads. The CEO of the adult retail chain replied to the threat cheerily, 'Perhaps I can send them an iGasm to put a smile back on their faces.'"

    Apple didn't invent silhouettes. I also seem to remember apple ripping off a Postal Service music video for an ad a while back and all you mac fanbois defending that. Just shut up you hypocritical bastards! Don't you have a blue apple to worship or something?
