Dr. Dre’s Beats Electronics Suing Yamaha For Copying Headphone Design

Dr. Dre and Beats Electronics have recently filed a lawsuit against Yahama…claiming they copied the design of the Beats By Dr. Dre headphones. 

The suit states, “Consumers appreciated the design, as well as the sound quality, of Beats and began wearing the Beats headphones around their necks as a fashion accessory even when not listening to music. In fact, the design of the Beats headphones has been a significant driver of the commercial success of the products.”

Dre and Beats are suing Yamaha for $75,000 claiming Yamaha is guilty of Trade Dress Infringement, Unfair Competition and Patent Infringement!

We’ll have more details as they become available!
