Lightbulb iTunes vs. the Beatles et all

I think it is time for Apple Computer to flex it's muscles a little...

I think Beatle related catalogs (Yoko Ono, John & Julian Lennon, Sir Paul-you get the idea-thier catalogs should be should not be avaliable-in any form-on iTunes-also, the site CANNOT refer to Apple as a brand-and the bite-out-of-the-apple logo cannot be used.

How about iPod.com-or mac tunes.com? Think about it-these has-beens and parasites have no marketable talents or appeal left-I say hit-em where it hurts and speed thier irrelavance. I think you'd hear a completly different whine.

I really don't see what importance this has, but I do feel that Apple has total power over the music sales industry and that the Beatles are just flogging a dead dog over this whole deal... They have no chance going against Apple in the music industry.

You're treading in dangerous waters there.

Granted, Apple did sign an agreement with Apple Corps. not to go into the music business, but I don't see why Apple Corps. is making such a big deal about it...

OK the poll just got weird-ELO-the BeeGees? whatever-Michael Jackson should sell his interest in the Beatles to Apple CEO Steve Jobs-they should not feed the beast that wants to eat them....that's all. Apple has found a niche where it is relavant-from a penny stock to over 60 bucks in a few years thanx to iPod and mac os-a synergy that actually works(unlike others, SOL oops I mean AOL-Time Warner.).

Jackson is not just going to sell his catalog on a whim; he has THE most valued music catalog in the world. Would you just sell it so that some big cheese could sell more songs, songs YOU could be making money off of?

Didn't think so.

Default apple vs dead beatles

Mr Jackson has recently converted to Islam-besides, imagine a "synergy"
to deliver prime content to iTunes-there are some kewl marketing opportunities-you'd be surprised.....
