Beatles on iTunes? Yoko Says Yes, EMI Says No
Rumors are circulating again that iTunes will finally be getting access to the Beatles catalog. According to a now mysteriously disappeared article from Sky News, Yoko Ono indicated to the news outlet that the Fab Four's albums might appear in the Apple owned music outlet. And, with an Apple press event scheduled for tomorrow (the same day as the release of The Beatles remastered albums) what better time for the biggest music store in the country to announce it would be selling songs from the biggest band ever.The article, which went up today and was quickly passed around Twitter, was pulled down by Sky News quickly. One employee apparently told the 9to5Mac blog that upper management instructed employees to not comment on the story, and the article even disappeared from Google's page-archiving Cache.
EMI's Ernesto Schmitt told the Financial Times specifically that The Beatles' material won't be available tomorrow on iTunes, but did say the company was in active talks with Apple to sell some of the EMI catalog digitally.
After years of endless rumors about the Beatles on iTunes, it's a little hard to get excited anymore. To confirm this isn't just more of the same, check in tomorrow to see what Apple does announce. [From: Engadget, 9 to 5 Mac, and Financial Times]

Better check with whoever has the "purse-strings" of Michael Jacksons' estate. Years ago, on the advice of Paul McCartney, Michael bought "record rights". Yep, the rights to most Beatles songs were one of his first purchases.
