Slashdot Mirror


Beatles and iTunes At Last?

rjshirts writes "Ars Technica is reporting that the Beatles and Apple have signed a reported $400 million dollar deal to bring the entire Beatles Catalog to iTunes. From the article: 'As of today there is no time frame as to when the catalog will appear online, but it seems to just be a matter of time. McCartney himself even said in November that the catalog would be making its way onto the the store some time in 2008. While we have heard this sort of thing time and time again, this might just be the real deal. Prepare yourself — Beatlemania is coming to iTunes.'"

    Ringo Star.

    He never does anything anyone here on slashdot couldn't do with 6 months of training.

    The Beatles where the first boy band in every sense of the term.
    Created an artificial demand, marketed it, when there audience changed, so did there music.
    Which is pretty mediocre.

    Even there best pieces are extremely dated, and weren't really cutting edge at the time.
