Yes, but you didn't get you're great CoverFlow artwork from iTunes, did you?

One thing seems to have gone over everyone's head. Jobs is a big Beatles fan. He's said so in interviews. From that we can assume that he owns a few Beatles CDs, and being the CEO of Apple, I bet he knows how to rip them to iTunes. I have lot's of Beatles on my iPod, and it all came from CDs.

Naysayers every time, but I guarantee the Beatles will quickly claim the top spots once they're available on the iTS.

Didn't anyone watch the keynote? Jobs kept dialing up Beatles tracks during his iPhone demo. Once I saw that, I went to the music store expecting to find it but didn't. I figured that it was only a matter of time.

The hang up with the Beatles has been on how iTunes will impact/canabalize their releases. The Beatles have X-number of releases planned a year to maximize revenue generated from their back catalog. These sorts of projects (1, the capitol releases, etc) are being weighed against how much they stand to make from single sales.

Wesley Willis is already on iTunes The Jeremy. Its the only thing for me that passes the time until The Beatles are finally added.

...and Wesley Willis...

Great! Now if iTunes could get Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Chilliwack and many other bands it would truly be a great place for music.

I think it would be great if they were in iTunes, and somebody said something about the 128 AAC songs of iTunes. Couldn't agree with you more. But I also have to say listening to them on CD right now is no treat either. GIVE ME MY REMASTERS!!!
