The Detroit News has reported that Eminem’s publishers and copyrighters, Eight Mile Style LLC and Martin Affiliated LLC (respectively), have filed a complaint against Apple for allowing unauthorized downloads of their music.
“Eight Mile and Martin have demanded that Apple cease and desist its reproduction and distribution and Apple has refused,” the complaint alleges.
An Apple spokesman had no immediate comment.
Eight Mile Style and Martin also sued Apple in 2004 over the computer maker’s use of the Eminem song “Lose Yourself” in a TV commercial for Apple’s iTunes music store.
A year later, the same companies sued five companies to stop them from selling Eminem song ring tones over the Internet.
Both of the earlier cases were settled out of court.
