So, remember that big lawsuit between Eminem's company Eight Mile Style, and Apple and Universal label Aftermath, over the sale of Slim Shady's music on iTunes? Eight Mile Style claimed its deals with Aftermath did not give the Universal division the rights to licence Eminem's tunes to Apple's download store. The grounds for Eight Mile Style's claims weren't 100% clear, and the wording of the record contracts at the heart of the claim unknown. And we are now unlikely to get any clearer insight into this dispute, because all parties have settled out of court. No details of the settlement have been revealed, though Eight Mile were suing for millions.
