Beatles and iTunes At Last?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the wearing-the-face-that-she-keeps-in-a-jar-by-the-door dept.

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.'"

    why is slashdot trying to bury NY governor Elliot Spitzer's prostituion news? Is it because the callgirl was none other than Kathleen Fent, Rob Malda's "wife" (CmdrTaco paid her to pretend to be his "beard" so the VA Linux crew wouldn't think he was a homo. )

    And why is Apple paying 400 million for it? Oh they sold another ipod, I guess they have to spend that sale's money somewhere.
