Apple releases a Beatles channel for the Apple TV, and other news from Feb. 10, 2014

It's no surprise that Apple is getting in on the landmark anniversary of Beatlesmania in the US. It's launched a Beatles channel for the Apple TV with the Beatles' initial appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show available for free streaming. It also promotes Apple's release of the Beatles' US albums, which differ greatly from the UK versions in the early years.

Other news from Monday afternoon included:

Additionally, we are pleased that Tim and the board have exhibited the "opportunistic" and "aggressive" approach to share repurchases that we hoped to instill with our proposal. It is our expectation that Tim and the board continue to exhibit this behavior as fiduciaries to the shareholders since they clearly seem to agree that our company continues to be extremely undervalued, and we all share a common optimism with respect to the company's bright long term future.
