Some raging full retard apple fanboy seems to have disagreed with you.

Its long past ridiculous. Its mile past that my friend. Next stop...patent the word "phone".

this is great news this shows a whole

one thing about it if one can fall they may reexaminie other icons and declare then invalid in fact they may show them as public domain

Really? People associate a music note with Apple now? Since when? Since Apple says they do? Give your head a shake dude. Sometimes the things I read here make me want to cry and punch a baby panda right in the face.

I associate that mark with sheet music or a musical note, not Apple. It's not like music did not exist before Apple and Itunes. It's out of hand and if you deny it then you are blind to reason.

First - Shhhhh....The adults are talking there's no need for juvenile behaviour such as name calling.

2nd, Spotify is a logo for their company. clearly displaying the wireless transfer/broadcast of music to the skies - not even close to the same thing at all

Trademarking a company LOGO is different because it's the LOGO that customers identify with. People don't look at a music note and think "Oh that must be an Apple thing".

actually i think they're seeking to just operate alone.
sue every possible competitor to death so they have a total monopoly.

anybody remember when apple used to be the little guys fighting against this kind of crap?
now they're worse than any of the companies they were fighting against.

guess they just proved the old saying that power corrupts.
