The photographer who took the picture of a wall of TV's. Apple entered into negotiation to use the pic, backed out without paying and used it anyways for the release of Apple TV.
Artist after artist who's music has been used for iPod commercials without consent. They air the ad, wait for a letter from an attorney, and then pull the ad. Mission accomplished.
The iPhone from Cisco.
I hope they get hit with punitive damages. Something to make them think before stomping over everyone.
Last thoughts... This is Jobs 101. He was kicked out of his own company because of his shady deals and hot temper. We're surprised to see this still?
