Apple and Apple have settled their long trademark¹ dispute. Steve Jobs' company, which just renamed themselves from Apple Computer to Apple Inc., and Apple Corps², the company that has overseen³ the interests of British pop group the Beatles since they founded the company in 1968, are no longer battling over the use of the word "Apple." Apple, Inc. will own the Apple trademark and license⁴ certain trademarks⁵ back to the Beatles' company. The new deal replaces a 1991 agreement in which the computer company promised not to use the word "Apple" in the music business. It also raised hopes among Beatle fans that their music would finally be available over the computer company's iPod service.
