New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

Er, switch that. Make "None" = "All".

RIP apple

xxp How many 50 year-olds have you ever bought?

thinking about steve jobs, watching the reaction on twitter. hope he is ok.

I'm not saying Apple won't make bank - only that it's not Earth-shattering news, particularly since it's been exactly one year since Beatles fans rebought the albums they care about.

otm

FWIW, there's also this:

even if the news is just the beatles, you know this is going to be in every news outlet in the world, right?

Going to wait until the copyrights run out and download it all free from archive.org.

who the fuck are the beatle

Spotify doesn't pay the labels enough for them to want to do it

Interestingly, a friend of mine had a meeting with Spotify recently and they told him that they now pay (in total) more in royalties in the UK than iTunes do. How much of this reaches the artists, I don't know.

I would be surprised if the Beatles stuff is just a small piece of whatever announcement is happening tomorrow. Could be wrong, of course...

Given that apple will only be paying royalties for streaming previews at the moment, (sales stuff handled through the labels), this wouldn't be hard.

Not sure I follow you. I don't think they were making a cute point that excluded royalties from iTunes sales on a technicality.

(I think the word "royalties" was mine, if that's the confusion. The point was that labels were getting more money from Spotify than from iTunes. It's all rather roundabout, because the labels themselves have a stake in Spotify, but anyway)

I find that hard to believe.

Me too. My friend's not a bullshitter though. Perhaps Spotify are.

I heard they're going to have free streaming Beatles for everyone who has iTunes.

How often do Apple's enigmatic announcements contain actual hints? Apart from pix of guitars, obv.

Usually always.

if it really is the beatles then http://www.legaljuice.com/yawn%20big%20funny.jpg

youre going to eat four of your fingers

truthfully in hindsight we shouldve known it was going to be something dumb seeing as how theres no event right

'never forget' wtf. If that's a Beatles hint it's a rubbish one. What about:

- You'll read the news tomorrow, oh boy
- Tomorrow may rain so I'll follow the press statement
- Yesterday all my remasters seemed so far away

Those are worse but you get my point.

- Tomorrow we will announce the availability of the Beatles catalog from the iTunes store

, life goes on

, a coo coo ca choo

Maybe we'll get to hear Carnival Of Light? Or is this *just* the common or garden Beatles back catalogue? Can't be can it, i mean there must be some extra hook, there usually is with the Fabs.

PAUL IS DEAD (so his family licensed the Beatles tracks to us)

- She's got an iTunes gift card and she don't care

i mean there must be some extra hook, there usually is with the Fabs.

LAME

was hoping this might be the sweetener for something else but no :(

$150? Really?

Who is that going to attract? Isn't it likely that the ppl most likely to spend that type of money on Beatles shit already has most of what they're offering?

16/11, never forget.

^^^

I have forgotten.

yeah really, most beatle fans have probably ripped their shit to the pc anyways. WHO CARES.
