That would be pretty awesome, and a huge coup for Apple. Another SE iPod perhaps? Maybe engraved with photos ala 'Let It Be' instead of signatures? What colour would it be? Yellow? Nah. White would be the obvious choice, but, yeah, white...hmm.
So it goes. |

Alas, it seems that the only Beatles announcement is that iTMS now has Sgt. Pepper's and The Long and Winding Road:

Okay, here's a better version. Deleted the first one to save bandwidth. By all means, tell me how you like it!
Also, scaled this one down and made it in-line. You ask me for a hamburger. |

You know this would be very cool if they got exclusive rights to the Beatles but for most of the 30 and over crowd, we already own all the Beatles hits / CDs anyway.

Moogs,
I gotta tell ya - if the iTMS got the Beatles catalog I would but the SHIT out of it, as I have all of zero Beatles songs, LOVE the band, but HATE CDs. Oh yeah, and I'm 28. So your point still holds, perhaps. Cheers, Wraven |

People, doesn't a Beatles iPod absolutely SCREAM for more than just a solid color? Think about it:
The Revolver cover is the most bitchin' album art ever. Beyond that, getting into the colorful, psychedelic era: how about that animation style/color of Yellow Submarine? That would sell like CRAZY! The Sgt. Pepper and Magical Mystery Tour colorings/motifs? On a more obscure note, what about George's painted Strat, having that be the basis for some Beatle-themed iPod? True fans (the types who'd spend $350 for a SE iPod) would get it, and appreciate the design. |

Seriously. Or something equally "out there". Just too many colorful, cool things to draw from in the Beatles' history. Although, I don't think is coming to be anyway (Beatles on iTMS, etc.).

Michael Jackson owns the rights to most of the Beatles songs doesn't he?
Michael Jackson needs cash. Steve Jobs loves the Beatles. Steve Jobs has cash. Steve Jobs has an online music store. Apple + Apple = APPLE ? |

Special Edition iPod for the White Album! Hm.....
I think Wacko Jacko sold back a fair number of the rights back to Paul or Apple Corps a little while ago. He needed the money IIRC. |

You know that commercial where Mini-Me is typing on a 17" Powerbook?
I think he should get his own iPod Mini special edition. Call it iPod Mini-Me. You ask me for a hamburger. Last edited by atomicbartbeans : 2005-07-09 at 09:13. |
