The Beatles Onboard With Rock Band
October 29, 2008
- Digital and Mobile
By Rob Levine, N.Y.
It looks like the Beatles are coming to "Rock Band."
The Beatles' Apple Corps Ltd. and MTV have scheduled a press teleconference tomorrow at 10:00 am ET to announce "an exclusive agreement to develop a global music project." Although the announcement does not offer details on the agreement, representatives of the Beatles have been talking to MTV's "Rock Band" team for months.
If a deal is signed, "Rock Band" will have secured two of the top-selling catalog bands of all time for versions of the game. AC/DC recently became the subject of a "Rock Band Track Pack," featuring 18 live versions of hits like "Thunderstruck" and "Back in Black." The title, like the band's new album, "Black Ice," is a Wal-Mart exclusive.
Both AC/DC and the Beatles remain absent from digital music services,
including the iTunes Music Store, AmazonMP3 and others.
MTV declined to comment.
