Epic vs Apple suit finally ends, as Supreme Court refuses to hear both appeals
So now Apple can require all developers to give 5% of revenue once they make 1 million outside of IAP just like Epic does?

Periscope lens camera rumored to be limited to iPhone 15 Pro Max
Which would mean I would skip it, like I did for the 12 pro vs max, I just don't want a bigger phone, and the main upgrades these days are in camera tech.

Apple hit with another lawsuit claiming iTunes music piracy
It's interesting how you have such in depth knowledge around the guilt in a case that was only recently filed and feel so assured that Apple is at fault. The music industry is a spider web of licensing, cross licensing, where rights and frequently sold and acquired, regardless of who originally wrote the music. Sounds like you just don't seem to be a fan of Apple yourself from your tone.tommikele said:
Actually, it’s not the darts approach. It’s called "I own the songs and you are part of a chain of illegal distribution. I want the money." The only question here for Apple is will they be held jointly and or separately libel once the ownership rights are established. The law is hazy on establishing liability in a supply chain like this. Apple may be able to establish they had no reason or evidence to doubt distributors right to sell the music and get out from under. Otherwise it will cost them the profits and the plaintiffs will look for punitive damages. That's the big money if you can get it from a set of deep pockets. Doubtful, but worth a try. This claim will be taken quite seriously by the courts as it should be. It's an intellectual property case. The gentle outrage is amusing since I bet you’ve expressed plenty of it when Apple says someone else is stealing their IP. Did you ever know anyone who made their living as a musician or writer or artist and found their work being sold illegally or pirated? I do. I am married to a pretty successful writer.david | dahoveed said:Is this the darts approach to the law? Keep throwing darts until one of them hits something? If these are taken seriously by the courts, Apple will file to have them combined into one case before one court.
