Eminem wins lawsuit against Apple

Rapper Eminem's music label has agreed to an undisclosed financial settlement with Apple Computer Inc in a lawsuit over copyright infringement claims.

In February last year, Ferndale-based Eight Mile Style filed a lawsuit in a District Court in Detroit against MTV, Apple, MTV's parent Viacom Inc and advertising agency TBWA/Chiat/Day claiming Apple used one of the rapper's hit songs in an advertisement without permission.

Apple featured a 10-year-old singing Eminem's Oscar-winning song Lose Yourself in an ad on MTV for the computer company's iPod music player and iTunes music service.
