Eminem - don't sing his songs loud

Okay - we exaggerate, but Apple Computers has been suit by Eminem for running an ad for their IPod where a small boy is singing a song by Eminem (http://news.com.com/2100-1027_3-5214985.html), for - guess what - copyrights violations. Eminem never endorsed any commercialproduct on a national level, and he says that such endorsement would "require a significant amount of money, possible in excess of US$10 million" (no interpretations from us about this one).

But hey - isn't it great that Apple endorses his songs? I mean, they are also criticised for their descriptive nature, and well, we couldn't imagine a better ad in a high profile runner such as the IPod. so - DJs out there - take care if you sing along songs, when you play music in the discos, okay? Or you there in the car, close the window, when you sing - you might give the wrong impression!
