Apple Wins Appeal in iPod Hearing Loss Case

What’s that you say? Apple won an appeal in that iPod hearing loss case? You’ll have to speak up, I can’t hear crap these days. Anyone seen my iPod Touch?

A federal appeals court on Wednesday rejected a class-action lawsuit seeking to hold Apple Inc responsible for possible hearing loss caused by using its popular iPod music player. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco affirmed a 2008 district court ruling that the plaintiffs failed to show that use of the iPod poses an unreasonable risk of noise-induced hearing loss.
