Holdout Bands Give In To iTunes (Wired News)

http://www.wired.com/news/wireservice/0,71624-0.html?tw=rss.index

Artists like Bob Seger and Kid Rock have been bucking the trend to sell their music on iTunes because of the manner in which the album's programming and production integrity is destroyed by selling songs individually according to the iTunes model. Other issues like contractual disagreements and the like have also postponed their entry onto the iTunes marketplace.

Artists like The Beatles will probably remain out of sight on iTunes for awhile, especially because of the bad blood arising from the recent lawsuit Apple Corps (The Beatles' corporate entity) took out against Apple (the iPod and iTunes company).
