EMI Throws Tantrum Over Beatles Downloads, Yells “I Want That!” at BlueBeat.com, Sues and Throws Sand in Their Face on Playground

Did you know that the entire Beatles catalogue has never been licensed for sale as a digital download? It's true. You'll be hard-pressed to find any trace of The Beatles on Amazon, iTunes, or anywhere else... except for BlueBeat.com, which has been audaciously selling Beatles tracks for 25¢ each.

When EMI and Apple Corps got wind of this, they screamed… they cried… and they sued. EMI has reportedly filed a lawsuit against BlueBeat citing “copyright infringement and misappropriation of pre-1972 sound recordings.” BlueBeat has yet to comment on its predicament.
