Here is a news article i found:
When it comes to logos, what do you think of when you see an apple -- the computer company, or the Beatles' record label?
Apple Corps is the record label and is suing the computer maker for allegedly violating a deal by going into the music business with the iTunes music store, which is what iPod owners use to download songs.
The two had agreed in 1991 to a "field of use" agreement -- essentially saying they wouldn't step on each other's toes.
Both companies feature apples in their logos -- with the record label having a shiny green apple, and the computer company boasting a cartoonish one with a bite taken out.
The case will be heard in London by a judge who has admitted owning an iPod.
