U.S. markets recover from steep losses
LONDON, March 27 (UPI) -- Apple Computer Co. and Apple Corps, which represents the Beatles' business interests, are about to clash in a British court.
Both parties are set for a hearing this week before Justice Edward Mann, who will decide whether Apple Computer's iTunes online music service violates a 1991 agreement between the two companies that Apple Corps says blocked the computer maker from selling music.
The California maker of iTunes and iPods says a 1991 agreement permitted using the Apple name to sell online data transfers, which are what downloaded songs amount to.
For its part, the Beatles' Apple Corps wants damages and a court order for the computer firm to stop using the Apple trademark to sell recordings online.
