02-09-06 / 15:00 : Earn money thanks to Apple (cjed) | Following Creative, here is the case of the developper of a music application that was able to earn a lot of money thanks to Apple. He filed a lawsuit against Apple for having used in iTunes an idea he had demoed previously. Now he reached an agreement (secret, but probably one million $). Comments at Macnn are wise : "There is willful infringement and then there is accidental infringement or coincidental infringement.... whether it was accidental or on purpose, at least apple did the right thing when they saw they were wrong and paid the dude. People are influenced by other all the time. NO art is completely created in a vacuum. and NO art is entireley original. period". | | Comments | Write a comment | |
