A few years ago, give or take, they began selling Beatles songs on iTunes.
The Beatles music is owned by EMI. They have licensed Apple to distribute the music via the iTunes store.
The people who hold the rights to the Beatles' recordings have not reached an agreement with Apple. There are concerns over pirating the music and how much money will be received. After lengthy negotiations from November 2010 The Beatles recordings are available from iTunes.
The quickest, easiest, (and most legal) place to download Come Together by The Beatles is iTunes. Downloading iTunes is free and you will have access to a wide range of music including songs and albums by The Beatles.
I found that the best way to buy the Beatles albums is from amazon.com. You can easily just rip the CD onto your computer using iTunes then.
Our friend is a huge Beatles fan and has almost every Beatles album. He just found the Beatles album Revolver on iTunes and downloaded the full album.
For a while, itunes did not have Beatle songs. Now, this year December 2010, itunes has Beatle songs!! Enjoy them, I know I am!!
uhh.... u can? :P
Here Comes the Sun
According to Paul McCartney Beatles music is not available in download formats because the record company (EMI) has failed to negotiate a suitable deal. (See links below) This was resolved in 2010 and The Beatles songs are available from iTunes.
Yes, it is also available on iTunes.
Yes, but you can't buy any Beatles music on iTunes except for the stuff sang by "fake" beatles. You would need to buy a CD to listen to their music.
