Beatles Collector's Box includes limited edition 120GB iPod classic, leaves the ripping to you

Listen up, Ringo Beatles fans -- your holiday gift has just been located, and it's on aisle 17 in Bloomingdale's. The somewhat janky limited edition collector's box is a dream come true for fanatics of the Fab Four, packing 13 original Beatles' CDs, an engraved guitar pick, two masters and the "Love" CD -- none of which are available via the iTunes Music Store, mind you. Just 2,500 of the $795 sets are available, but -- humorously enough -- you'll be stuck ripping and transferring every last disc onto your individually numbered, etched-with-a-Beatles-logo 120GB iPod classic. Ah well, at least this scenario lets you choose your own bitrate, right?

Heh heh ... and then, next year, when the newly remastered tracks come out next year the remaining fab gear moptops and the fab gear moptop estates of John and George can get even more money by doing this all over again.

I actually bought one and it is fantastic.The guys crossing Abbey Road is etched into the back of the Ipod, and "The Beatles" is etched on the front. If you ever wanted your Ipod with Beatles images, this is the only way you could get it - without committing copyright infringement. The box is beautiful - the inside cover has a collage of album artwork. The entire package represents how they guys were originally listened to (Vinyl records - box), to how they are now (Ipod). The guitar pick can be worn on a necklace - it is super cool. I highly recommend. Great gift no question.
