The Inquirer reports that Illinois firm, Premier International, is suing Apple for claimed breaches of two of the company’s patents. “Premier took action in a Texas district court earlier this month alleging that Apple breached its patent numbers 6,243,725 and 6,763,345. These patents, claimed Premier, have been incorporated into iPod, iTunes and PC product lines. The first of the patents is a list building system granted in June 2001 for building an inventory of audio, musical, and audio visual works. The second is also for a list building system, granted on July 13th 2004.”
