Apple's problem/fault
If you set yourself as a car dealership selling stolen cars for profit, you can't avoid any blame by saying "oh well i bought them off some guy, if he didn't have the right to sell them he's to blame, so p1ss off and deal with him direct, I'll carry on selling and keep these profits I've banked along the way".
Or if you're waiting patiently at a stop sign and car A shunts into the back of you, and he says its because car B ran into the back of him. You don't really care whether C hit B or not, whether C was going too fast, B's lights were out, B & C had some kind of agreement that C would be allowed to drive into the back of B on certain days of the month. What concerns you is the fact that the back of your car is messed up, because driver B hit it.
Why B hit you is not your concern - it wasn't your own fault, so it must be B's fault, so you sue him and he can sue someone else if he wants to.
Although if the cars were all being driven under some complex DRM agreement I don't know if the above is true. Does having a drivers licence count?
