Best Guess For Tomorrow’s Announcement: Beatles on iTunes

By

The consensus is that tomorrow’s big announcement isn’t streaming iTunes or anything to do with the cloud, but the Beatles finally coming to iTunes.

Look at the image above (via Techcrunch). Coincidence? Also, The Wall Street Journal and Billboard are reporting that the big announcement tomorrow is the Beatles on iTunes.

Says the WSJ:

Steve Jobs is nearing the end of his long and winding pursuit of the Beatles catalog.

Apple Inc. is preparing to announce that its iTunes Store will soon start carrying music by the Beatles, according to people familiar with the situation, a move that would fill in a glaring gap in the collection of the world’s largest music retailer.

Of course, the Beatles-on-iTunes rumor is as old as the hills. It was last aired in the run-up to Apple’s September 1st music-focused media event. Seems every time there’s an Apple event, it’s the Beatles.
