Apple, Inc. has launched a complaint with World Intellectual Property Organization over the domain name iTunes.com.mx. .Mx is Mexico’s country code, and .com.mx is the standard second level domain used in the country (although Mexico is now opening up .mx at the first level). The arbitration panel should render a decision on whether Apple gets the domain name within a couple months.

Surely this doesn't come as surprise...

Do we really need to wait for the decision to know what is going to happen here? This is quite blatantly squatting.

I think this is a prime example of squatting vs. domaining.

If you want to consider domaining as a business, then it is not even an example of domaining. God forbid, most people in the domaining business would have the common sense to stay away from this.

Doesn't Mexico have its own arbitration system? You certainly cannot take .co.uk to Wipo.
