The Beatles. Apple. Tuesday?
The Beatles. You’ve heard of them.
Apple. The one that makes iPads, iPods, iMacs and the like. Not the one the Beatles own.
Tomorrow, if everything goes as expected and the Beatles’ semi-impoverished record label EMI doesn’t change its mind (evidently they have before), Apple’s Steve Jobs is going to stand on a west coast stage at about 10
AM Eastern time and announce that the Beatles will be available on iTunes – for Macs, iPads, iPods, PCs, and the whole nine-yards.
Merry Christmas, music-lovers!
Since i refuse to have anything to do with Apple's proprietary music system and cruddy software … who cares?
You must have cared at least a little bit, since you not only bothered to read a story (which you supposedly don't care about) but also post a comment about the story (again which you supposedly don't care about). Unless comicmix.com is your exclusive property mike, you might want to tone down the self-importance because OTHERS might actually care.
(A) It was unnecessary to read the story; the headline is the story.(B) And, whether others care or not, "Who cares?" is a standard USAian idiom, which doesn't mean that i think no-one else cares, but that i couldn't care less.(C) And i signed my name to my comment. Who cares what an anaonymous sniper thinks?
Mike, With all due respect to you, I have to say I care. I took more than one ass kicking growing up because I was such a Beatles fan. Trust me being a Beatles fan in the hood was not an easy thing. I still love the Beatles and I'd be surprised if Apple had something I don't but I would like digital copies so I can give my albums and CD's a break. Regarding Steve Jobs, there's a bunch of stuff I'd like to light a fire under his ass about, however this is not one of them.
Oh, the Beatles are minor gods. I 100% agree. But i don't need Apple and their badly-conceived and -executed software/system to enjoy them; i can (and have) bought the CDs, which give me a lot more – at higher quality than what i'd get through iTunes.Jobs had almost redeemed himself for his past fecicranialisms with Pixar … but lately, he's off the rez again.
