'N Sync have been served another lawsuit by an unnamed
individual seeking a fee for the use of copyright, the
copyright in question being the band's name, 'N Sync.
The band have been stuck in the middle of a legal
wrangle since Jive Records had a writ slapped on them by
the boys' original label who claim to have trademarked
the band's name back in 1996.
Band member Justin Timberlake has broken 'N Sync's
silence on the issue, telling the press: "I can give you
my personal opinion: Love the music, hate the business.
It's a screwball business and there are a lot of players
who will straight-up lie to you."
In a statement issued by the group, the boys make their
feelings on the issue perfectly clear: "Trans Continental's
['N Sync's previous label] conduct with regard to 'N Sync
is the most glaring, overt and callous example of artist
exploitation that the music industry has seen in a long
time."
