Apple Records owns the rights to the Beatle recordings. However, Apple must pay a licensing fee to the music publisher (Sony, Jackson estate, etc.) for the right to use Lennon-McCartney compositions. Out of that money, Paul and John's estate are paid their royalties. Very complicated arrangement.

Who owns the music?
Michael Jackson bought the rights to many of The Beatles songs many years ago, outbidding Paul McCarthy for them. Recently he has sold some of them in an attempt to liquidate some of his debts.Rumor has it that he leaves the remainder to Paul McCarthy in his will. Michael Jackson bought the publishingrights to most of the Beatles catalog. The individual Beatles still retained songwriters rights and we paid for it each time a song in the catalog was licensed.

How do you get someones music from there iTunes to your iTunes?
Music is supplied for the use of an individual. Unless the other person owns the distribution rights for the music they are not allowed to pass it on to others. Both they and you are acting illegally. I don't believe that this answer is correct. It has always been legal to give music that you have legally bought to a personal friend. Apple even authorizes you to do that, but only to 4 other devices. But regardless of Apple, there is nothing illegal about giving music to friends. What is illegal is selling it.
Do you have to get rights to an artist music to make a medley of their work?
Yes indeed! The other artist "owns" the music, the lyrics and the rights to it. You must get their permission in writing.
