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

― Alba, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 00:04 (fifteen years ago)

(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)

― Alba, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 00:08 (fifteen years ago)

I find that hard to believe.

― dan selzer, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 00:21 (fifteen years ago)

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.

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

― ice cr?m, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 03:14 (fifteen years ago)

'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.

― 14d. South African cleric (2,2) (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 03:19 (fifteen years ago)

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

― ice cr?m, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 03:21 (fifteen years ago)

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.

― piscesx, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 03:34 (fifteen years ago)

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

LAME

― Mark Chmuras Hot Tub Crime Machine (chrisv2010), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 14:58 (fifteen years ago)

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

― Jefferson Mansplain (DG), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 14:59 (fifteen years ago)

$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?

― Baron Strange of Knockin (DJP), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:01 (fifteen years ago)

16/11, never forget.

literally millions of people.

― caek, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:06 (fifteen years ago)

'...and a video of the band's 1964 first US concert'. which it seems you can just watch free anyway.

― piscesx, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:07 (fifteen years ago)

my mother being a beatles fan could care less. she doesn't even know what itunes is. plus she still has all her vinyl.

― Mark Chmuras Hot Tub Crime Machine (chrisv2010), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:08 (fifteen years ago)

i'd have preferred the complete rooftop gig to be fair.

― piscesx, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:12 (fifteen years ago)

so is AC/DC the biggest remaining holdout? I see that Pink Floyd & Radiohead are on itunes now (prob. have been for years, I just remember a long time ago that people talked about this quadruple being the big holdouts)

― Euler, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:12 (fifteen years ago)

also I want to stress that I could not care less, in case that wasn't clear

― Euler, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:13 (fifteen years ago)

"tell a friend"

suspect all my friends already know of the beatles.

they really dropped the ball not sorting this 13 months ago when the CDs came out.

― piscesx, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:18 (fifteen years ago)

... who likely already have most if not all of this material.

― Baron Strange of Knockin (DJP), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:22 (fifteen years ago)

£1=$1 again, really?

― stet, Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:23 (fifteen years ago)

Apple doesn't make real coin on iTunes sales anyway, do they? i doubt Apple particularly cares how many they sell.

― progressive cuts (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 16 November 2010 15:26 (fifteen years ago)

ya it's more about steege
