iTunes’s hard day’s night almost over?

Hard Day's NightIf I had a million dollars for every time we’ve mentioned The Beatles’s appearance on the iTunes Store being imminent, then I would have enough money to construct for myself a small castle in the heart of Boston. But, like Ringo Starr, we’re going to keep beating that drum until the lads from Liverpool are available for download.

In an interview with Billboard magazine, Paul McCartney said that his forthcoming solo album, “Memory Almost Full,” be his first available for download, via Starbucks’s Hear Music label (which has its own section on the iTunes Store). In addition, McCartney said that a deal to bring The Beatles catalog to online stores was “virtually settled.” Oh ho ho: pun intended, Sir Paul?

We know you, our readers, have been burned before, but we say this now with absolute sincerity: The Beatles will come to the iTunes Store by the end of this year.

(Probably.)
