Does a .com suffix make a trademark? The US Supreme Court will decide as Booking marks its legal spot

Re: Actually seems reasonble

Apple is not a generic word in the fields of computing or recorded music. That might be why they can get the trademark.

[Apple Music used to be a completely different company with its own trademark registration, hence Apple Computers used iPod / iTunes etc. Apple Computers subsequently came to some sort of deal with Apple Music to allow them to use the Apple brand for their music products.]
