Zeppelin was never on Apple Corp or Apple Records. They started on Atlantic and then moved to their own label, Swan Song, for the later albums. If the Apples "work it out" (to quote a great Beatles song), it would mean nothing for Zep on iTMS.Don't bother with iTunes. Just go down to your local used CD store and pick up a copy. You can surely find a copy of any of Zep's albums for less than a sawbuck and you get much more than you would get for your $10 on iTMS, such as liner notes and the ability to encode at a rate higher than 128. Bear in mind, I'm a NY'er and am spoiled by a plethora of used CD stores.
I agree. Hopefully Paul and Ringo will be involved in the remastering and will make sure that the material is treated respectfully and that it sounds like they want it to sound.
Ummm... who said iTunes was going to have the Beatles? And sorry.... Tool? Yeah, not really on the same level as Metallica, Zepp and AC//DC.Once again, why not just go down to the store and buy the CD?(oh, right, the whole geeky the-sun-is-trying-to-kill-me-and-the-grass-makes-my-allergies-act-up thing. well, that's ok. just stay in your bedroom where you're safe from pollen and girls)
That makes no sense. I hope you realize that a) Apple Records (not Apple Music) released the Beatles albums and b) Apple Computers, Inc. would need Apple Corps/Apple Records permission to sell those albums.The things that hurt Apple Computers, Inc.'s case are the exclusive tracks and the fact that they have produced tracks (for Elvis Costello and PJ Harvey), which goes to show that Apple Computers, Inc. has gotten into the music field of use. That's what makes Apple Computers, Inc. hard to distinguigh from a music label. And Apple Computers, Inc. is probably going to have to remove the logo anyway.
man i d/led the white album once from a torrent (I own the CD) and it sounded so great because they had recorded it right off the vinyl. Thats what they need to do if they out it up on itunes

Then buy some Beatles CD's. What does it matter whether they're on iTMS if you already have the albums?

If it gets on iTMS, my guess is that the tracks will be album-only.
