iTunes以4亿美元获得甲壳虫乐队数字音乐再版版权
Posted on March 10th, 2008 by sawyer

昨天,甲壳虫乐队(The Beatles)健在成员McCartney与iTunes达成协议,同意将甲壳虫乐队所有音乐的数字再版版权(back catalog)授予iTunes,价格为4亿美元。McCartney将和另一位乐队健在成员Ringo Starr,以及前乐队成员George Harrison和John Lennon的家庭成员之间分享。作为部分版权拥有者的Michael Jackson和EMI、Sony也将从中获益。
iTunes曾在几年前就寻求获得甲壳虫乐队的数字音乐再版版权,这次可以说是如愿以偿。iTunes对于经典或者绝版音乐的数字再版,并提供下载,确实方便了用户,也使很多老唱片得以重生。
