http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonderwall_Music
Later Lennon formed a band with Clapton doing concerts in Toronto (1969).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_Peace_in_Toronto_1969
McCartney tried all he could to keep the Beatles united, by controlling everything (including bringing the Eastman lawyer to help save their company) which frustrated the others.
To me Lennon was the one who disbanded the Beatles not McCartney or Yoko, he was the one who took her to the Beatles sessions violating their own rules.
Now as a Beatles fan I think it is shame that their music is not available digitally.
Such a Great band.

You may not like them, but 200 years from now Beatles will still be played on the radio. They are timeless, probably moreso than the classical composers we hold in high regard today.]]>Aug 6th 2010 4:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/Agreed,
I have never understood what people liked about the Beatles and their bubblegum, childish styled music.
If you ask me the only one of the "Fab Five" that had any talent was John Lennon, he had a more adult musical style and wrote some very good songs.
Let's move on and let go of the Beatles and their crappy music, (We all live in a yellow submarine) what a f*,#ing joke.]]>Aug 6th 2010 6:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/
@JayVe Seriously? You think they're more timeless and will last longer than the likes of Mozart, Bach and Beethoven? Wow..]]>Aug 6th 2010 6:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/Typical RollingStoner... Always bashing the Beatles and people who enjoy their music. You're just jealous because the rolling stones are...

wait, isn't this a gadget blog???

The Beatles get less viruses, and they look better. Sure, you can't get their music at the most popular music store, but that's the price you have to pay. It probably costs more too... you know, the typical Beatles Tax. ]]>Aug 6th 2010 7:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/The Beatles were pop-music for the times, so they were popular.

I agree with you that they are over rated. Perhaps I'm an ignorant jerk too because a lot of people downranked you. I upranked you, and maybe the three other people who are sick of hearing about them will do the same, then others will be able to see your comment again.

The Beetles are like the TV show 'Friends.' Far too popular with far too many fans, and I never understood why. ]]>Aug 6th 2010 8:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/06/yoko-ono-regarding-beatles-on-itunes-dont-hold-your-breath/

You must not have listened to much of the music you are trash talking. Rubber soul is pretty damn far from bubble gum or childish. Really, get over the cliche bs and give a great band some credit.
