Beatles on iTunes by 2008?

Harrison also noted that one factor for the delay is that a complete remastering of all the CDs is in the works and is taking awhile.

The Beatles' catalogue will be distributed through EMI meaning they will go online DRM-free.

No, I'm pretty sure the problem is that Micheal Jackson owns the rights to about half of the good Beatles tunes out there. I believe much of the problem was convincing/paying him to let the songs be put onto the internet.

y does Michael Jackson own them

Still good news AT LAST...

So maybe not. But it still might be part of the issue.

@moomoo2

Lol both posted the same link at the same time.. weird!!

Haha whoaaa.

By the time they finally do get the songs out on iTunes I doubt they'll have very many sells. Most people don't like to wait, when they think of or here a song they want it now. Therefore peer to peer I'm sure has picked up the slack of slow acting record execs. Stupid cpoyright holders are their own worst enemy. He who hesitates is lost.

here is to the 4 bettle fans left.

That's just terrible, but funny, my goodness

I'll buy the 96/24 bit versions on DVD, rather than by a remastered MP3 @ 128kbps whats the point!...$$$$

The longer they hold out, the fewer of their core fans will be around to appreciate their music.
