Eminem sues Apple over downloads

[method77]

Eminem is suing computer firm Apple for allegedly selling his music in its iTunes store without permission.

A lawsuit claiming infringement of copyright has been filed on behalf of the singer by his music publishing company Eight Mile Style.

Apple pays Eminem's record label for each download - but Eight Mile Style argues it has not approved the deal.

"This is a significant issue in the music industry," said Norman Ankers, a lawyer for the company.

"This occurs with many artists and many record labels."

A spokesperson for Apple had no comment on the legal case, which was filed in the US District Court in

Detroit.

Yeah. I need to reword that... the publisher. The publisher is getting paid, the label is not.

I think the publisher should be hit.

Actually, I think publishers should be shot, burned, hung, boiled, hung, shot, burned, given a wedgie, shot, swirlied, and have their lunch money taken away.

I appreciate the way you shot them 3 times and only hung or burned them twice.
