Apple Sued by the Electronic Frontier Foundation

Last Monday, a lawsuit against Apple was filed jointly by the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) and attorneys representing the website Bluwiki.com.
The reason behind such legal action begins in November 2008 when Apple Legal forced Bluwiki to remove information on its server about a project entitled iPodhash. Based on reverse engineering, this project aimed to find a way to use an iPod without requiring iTunes to be installed on the computer, as the Linux version of this software does not exist. While apple Legal was using the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) to force Bluewiki to remove this information, the same law states that reverse engineering can be used to allow interoperability of products, and this is precisely what the iPodhash was about.
Indeed, iPodhash did not imply removing DRM from music tracks, but simply make it possible to use an iPod with any other media managing application, on any OS. It is quite clear that Apple does not want such feature to be allowed on the iPhone or iPod touch as it could sign the end of life of its iTunes Store or AppStore.
Except if Apple changes its mind and try to find an agreement, it seems that all players embark for a long legal action and battle for which Apple might be in trouble as the law might be against part of its business model.
