Apple & The Beatles reach a new agreement

February 5th, 2007 No comments

Today’s press release is that Apple, Inc. and Apple Corp (owned by The Beatles) have reached a new agreement on the use of the “Apple” name. Under this new agreement Apple, Inc. will own all of the trademarks associated with “Apple” and will license certain trademarks back to Apple Corp. for their uses. This may well mark an end to legal wranglings that have continued for almost 30 years since the challenge against th inclusion of a sound processor in the Apple ][ computer.

Obviously, this sheds some new light on the recent name change from Apple Computer, Inc. to just plain Apple, Inc.
