I honestly don't know why we should care anymore. If the only way to purchase music was digitally and The Beatles weren't selling their stuff that way, then there might be some concern. Anyone who wants their stuff can just buy CDs.
Of course, if the music world was digital download only, you can bet Apple Records would be selling their stuff somewhere.
By the time they decide to join the party, they won't just be fashionably late, the party will be over.

I think it's great that this story is so important that it's been posted twice today with only minor differences between the two versions.

I'm with Morris, I think they've missed the window of opportunity. I'm not sure what they're holding out for, we've been trading Beatles music since the cassette days and I don't know anyone who doesn't own at least half of their CDs.
Their time to make hay out of the promotion was a few years ago. It would've been cool to have the Beatles catalog on iTunes when it hit mainstream but they seem to be holding out for something to happen, I'm not sure what.
Maybe they're waiting to be the first implantable mp9 or whatever.
Sorry guys, I digitized my CDs years ago and have no need to pay for them again.
Good luck with that "lost track."

Damn you Yoko Ono. Damn you. You've been getting between me and the Beatles for almost 40 years now!

Who cares about the Beatles ? They're so yesterday - nothing but old and tired songs just like when they came out. She Loves you yah yah yah . . .

I've always just wanted to say: Damn you, Yoko Ono. Damn you.

Besides, the Beatles didn't stick with the simplicity of "She Loves You...ya ya ya".
There was always the interesting drug/experimental stage and especially Revolution 9:
