Apple is Sued After Pressuring Open-source iTunes Project
The fight is over efforts to get iPods, iPhones working with non-iTunes software
By Robert McMillan, IDG News Service
Apple did not respond to requests for comment on the lawsuit.
In an interview Monday, OdioWorks Founder Sam Odio said he believes that the iPodhash's lead developer, who went by the pseudonym Israr, would pick up the discussion if OdioWorks and the EFF win the case. "What this guy was doing was legitimate," Odio said. "He was just trying to reverse-engineer Apple's products to try to get them to work with Linux and other third-party software."
