Well, it appears Apple has finally be forced to admit it screwed up! Those of you who own older Apple iPod music players may be eligible for a $50 voucher and an extended warranty from Apple, over issues with the iPod’s rechargeable and not-user-serviceable battery.

From USAToday:

According to the terms of the settlement, people who fill out a claim form are entitled to receive $50 redeemable toward the purchase of any Apple products or services except iTunes downloads or iTunes gift certificates. They can redeem the voucher within 18 months of final settlement approval at any bricks-and-mortar Apple Store or online.

Consumers who had battery troubles can also get their battery or iPod replaced through the lawsuit.

Apple currently replaces or repairs defective products that are returned within one year but the class-action settlement extends the warranty to two years, plaintiffs’ lawyers said.
