The Apple Corp. vs Apple Computer Inc. case opened today in the High Court in London with the Apple Corp. lawyer Geoffrey Vos saying that the problem is not with music, it's with logos. "Apple Computer can go into the recorded music business in any way they want," Vos said. "What they cannot do is use Apple trademarks to do it." To demonstrate, he displayed an iTunes advertisement to the court where the familiar bitten apple logo appears.
The agreement was made in 1991 between both companies. It governed how both could use their Apple trademarks. Vos claimed that Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs offered Apple Corp. just $1 million for the trademark and was turned down.
