10-Year-Old iTunes DRM Lawsuit Heading To Trial

Posted by samzenpus on Monday December 1, 2014 @07:20AM from the getting-around-to-it dept.

itwbennett writes Plaintiffs in the Apple iPod iTunes antitrust litigation complain that Apple married iTunes music with iPod players, and they want $350 million in damages. The lawsuit accuses Apple of violating U.S. and California antitrust law by restricting music purchased on iTunes from being played on devices other than iPods and by not allowing iPods to play music purchased on other digital music services. Late Apple founder Steve Jobs will reportedly appear via a videotaped statement during the trial, scheduled to begin Tuesday morning in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.

Yeah, "Socialism" is inevitable — followed by the equally inevitable Communism :-) Karl Marx much?
