Apple is purportedly in talks with the major record labels about allowing consumers unlimited access to their libraries through iTunes. Read a short article about it here.
The former Beatles star, who is currently mired in a bitter divorce, officially sanctioned the Internet download service to offer the band’s musical hits from albums such as “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” the Daily Mail said Saturday.
McCartney will not be the only one enjoying the profitable deal. Former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr will receive a portion of the profits, as will the families of late Beatles stars George Harrison and John Lennon.
Portions of the multimillion-dollar payout also will go to pop singer Michael Jackson, along with the EMI and Sony recording groups, who each own certain Beatles recording or publishing rights.
The Daily Mail said the deal could directly impact McCartney’s ongoing divorce from Heather Mills as the former model may increase her settlement request to include a portion of the singer’s newfound fortune.

So the talk of the town…apple and it’s Chief Executive “Air” Jobs had their big dog & pony show yesterday. Not sure how impressed I am by the Macbook Air, I have a Mac and I love it but I get why stock dropped yesterday. $1,800 for a machine that doesn’t have a built-in optical drive for reading CDs (way to support the iTunes store) and DVDs… “Air” Jobs doesn’t seem to think people will miss it and he may be right, after all you can download movies and music over the Internet and access the optical drives on other PCs and Macs to install new software. I guess I was just hoping for more as it seems so was the world…
Just 1 question Steve Jobs, where was Michael Jordan and did you get his approval to use “Air”…

Out comes the MacBook Air. It’s silver (aluminum?), has black keys, is super super thin, and Steve can hold it easily with his fingertips. “It’s the world’s thinnest notebook,” he reiterates. It has a 13.3-inch widescreen display. “And the display is gorgeous.” It’s an LED backlit display that’s instant-on. It also has a built-in iSight camera, and a full-sized keyboard. Backlit too, with a trackpad and multi-touch gesture support on the trackpad.
