Yawn. How many 'lost tracks' have we seen from the Beatles.

Who cares.

I guess you're either too young or too ignorant to appreciate the impact the Beatles had on music.

Answer: lots of people care.

Oh please, enough of the Beatles coming to the net stories. I'm a Beatles fan and, like just about every other fan on the planet, I have had their music on my iPod and music server for years.

I ripped my vinyl Beatles records and finished my collection with about $20 worth of CDs from Amazon a long time ago. Based on all the p*ssing and moaning from the RIAA everyone else has already downloaded their entire collection.

In any event, IMO, no one is waiting for their music to come to iTunes or AmazonMP3.

Not entirely true. I had all the albums on vinyl in my youth, and never replaced my set with CDs (I'd heard them so often that I spent 20 years without the need to listen) ... were the albums available for download, I'd absolutely buy them. But, I'm not going to bother buying CDs at this stage - I don't feel like spending an evening ripping the whole lot of them (I've plenty of other more pressing things to do). So - laziness wins; but if they were conveniently available, there's no doubt I'd purchase them. I can't believe I'm the only one in this category....

Listen, you all have to stop sending you bootleg cd's to Ringo for signature, he just trashes them

It will be very interesting to see who gets the download rights to this 14-minute song. Any server that legally hosts this song better hope they can handle the load because you can expect millions of copies to be downloaded just in one day.
