Come On, Let’s Twist and Shout – The Beatles Are Coming…
Rumors abound with the announcements that Apple are poised going to make today regarding their iTunes updates. Rumors of The Beatles finally coming to iTunes are nothing new, but John Lennon’s widow Yoko Ono helped to quiet those talks in August, when she said that fans shouldn’t hold their breath for a potential deal. The Beatles have long resisted digital music, instead opting to re-release albums on physical mediums. The band finally released their music digitally on special USB devices, as well as the video game "The Beatles: Rock Band," but iTunes did not come to be. Until now….
Now it looks as if Apple are going to ‘Let it be’ or perhaps they have just sorted out their legal battle, but it looks like they may have ‘worked it out’ with ‘a little help from my friends’ . We’ll certainly find out later if this is true or not or just ‘too much monkey business’.
Make sure you check back, I’m sure ‘we can work it out’ 😉
