Apple this week clomped into court to continue fighting a nearly 10-year-old class-action suit stemming from its use of digital rights management technology in iPods.
The suit originally was brought in 2005. Both sides’ lawyers have filed dozens of trial documents in several hearings. The courts have dismissed some of the items in the original complaint, but have refused to dismiss the case against Apple. The suit affects consumers who bought iPods from Apple between Sept. 12, 2006, and March 31, 2009.
