Apple Gets Favorable Result In iPod Hearing Loss Lawsuit

on 12/31/2009, filed in Home > Apple

Apple seems to have managed to sort out a messy class-action lawsuit in its favor. The class action lawsuit claims that Apple’s iPod can cause hearing loss, but the claim was rejected in the appeals court, and ruled that the plaintiffs did not adequately show that the use of the iPod “poses an unreasonable risk of noise-induced hearing loss”. Do you think that the iPods might cause you hearing loss? Wouldn’t you just turn down the volume on your iPod if the music was too loud anyways?

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.
