In a recent interview, McCartney, former beatle is accusing EMI, and blaming them for the fact that many of the great songs of the beatles are not on iTunes. He is saying that since EMI has the rights, and can handle all of the bands songs, they are simply not promoting them on the world's largest music distributor, iTunes. Personally, I think that this is outrageous and simply crazy, to blame that EMI is "being selfish" their music.
In their defense, EMI, and many other companies and independent sources are saying that, Apple and British Apple did not come to legal agreements, until around 2003, and are still working out technicalities.
