Gotta love the "Exciting" announcements from Apple... to them everyting is "exciting". I'd bet that for them a f*rt from Steve Jobs ass is exciting...

It IS kind of a big deal that the largest digital music retailer finally started selling the best-selling musicians of all time.

Apple didn't make a huge fuss over this but it was worth a splash page on their site... after all, they ARE the largest digital distributors of music worldwide and the largest overall music retailer in the US.

It's ridiculous that people will go out of their way just to trash-talk Apple... as if Apple gives a damn. Hating companies is such a waste of time.

Well it might be very important, but "exciting" I'd disagree... Anyone who is a Beatle fan already owns the physical media and can just rip it at the comfort of their own homes, I just can't see anyone bouncing around in excitement over this announcement. If they'd announce a specific partnership for releasing some previously unreleased material, then I'd call that exciting. Now, I'm not hating Apple, I'm just saying that they use the word "exciting" for almost EVERYTHING which, at least to me, seems kind of ridiculous. 

Is it important? Yeah. Am I excited? of course not.

That's a fair point. I even pointed out how silly Apple's "excitement" was over Mighty Mouse earlier in this thread.

Still, I think this is mildly exciting, if only because it means the last major digital holdout is on the market.
