Apple Corps. loses to Apple Computer

There’s not much to say about this just yet, because there really aren’t any details, but the news out of London is that The Beatles’ record label, Apple Corps., has lost to Apple Computer in their trademark case. The judge has ruled that Apple is not a music company, merely a distributor. Hopefully this will mean that Beatles’ music may eventually end up on iTunes, or at least some online service.

I hate to see The Beatles lose, but let’s face facts: if you’re dumb enough to confuse the two you’re probably too stupid to use a computer or appreciate The Beatles’ music.

I’ll get some more details up here as soon as somebody has a full story on the decision.

UPDATE: Here’s the story.
