Did I Tell You I Need You?
In promoting his new Fireman album (out tomorrow in the states), Paul McCartney provided an update on when The Beatles' catalog(ue) might hit iTunes:
"We are very for it, we've been pushing it. But there are a couple of sticking points, I understand. So the last word I got back was that it had stalled, the whole process.Right, so, in the meantime, just rip those crappy-sounding CDs you already have and get by for a while.
"They [EMI] want something we're not prepared to give them. Hey, sounds like the music business.
"It's between EMI and The Beatles. What else is new."
Update: Here's a decent write-up of the situation at Apple 2.0. I'd have the agree that the window is rapidly passing for the digital Beatles to be a huge success unless they just knock it out of the park with marketing, extras, etc. I think most casual fans already have the songs they want ripped from CD's or "borrowed" from friends.
