George Harrison Joins iTunes

George Harrison Joins iTunes

Well, the Beatles are finally on iTunes ... sort of. George Harrison's solo work is the last of all the former Beatles bandmembers' music to be made available digitally through Apple's music service. The deal is not exactly an iTunes exclusive, since nine of Harrison's post-Fab Four albums are already available through other online retailers such as Rhapsody, but the albums sold on Apple's store will have rare tracks unavailable elsewhere.

Now, the more digitally inclined can pick up the classic 'All Things Must Pass,' or, if you're in the mood for a little irony-laced 1980s sing-along, just go grab 'Got My Mind Set On You.'

Apple the computer company and Apple the record label settled their dispute some time ago and now we're all just biding our time until the Beatles catalog becomes available electronically. Paul McCartney and Olivia Harrison, George's widow, have said they hope to see the Beatles catalog online soon.

Maybe the deal is already done and this is just Steve Jobs' way of teasing us.
