This case has been proceeding for NINE years since being file as a class action by the lawyers who created it. . . it’s now in trial. Only now does it turn out that the two lead plaintiffs cannot possibly have been injured by the activity they are suing about because THEY DID NOT OWN THE PRODUCT DURING PERIOD TO WHICH THE LAWYERS THEMSELVES LIMITED THE CASE! One bought her iPod three months after the last date possible, and the other even later than that!

Total incompetence. . . and a completely manufactured complaint and case created for the benefit of the attorneys bringing it.

Why do you post so much about Apple? Makes it look like it is a cult.

LOL! I’m no fan of Apple, but I hate lawyers even more, and they will be the BIG LOSERS if the case collapses on this.

Plaintiff Marianna Rosen, the plaintiff whose iPod was purchased too late to be included in the class of devices for her to have been injured by not being able to buy RealNetwork’s music and have it disappear from her iPod, is the wife of one of the partners in the law firm that started this lawsuit! Strange. . . can you say contrived by lawyers for the entire benefit of lawyers?

Apple is a very successful company with plenty of money in its coffers.

Therefore sleazy, unethical lawyers will find ways to separate Apple from some of that money.
