who owns Beatles songs?
Michael jackson sold them? or is he about to make millions?

He still owns a lot of them. I believe he sold a percentage of the rights to Sony.

The beatles will not be in Rockband, this thread title is very misleading...

There will be either a track pack or a full game called Rock Band: Beatles. How's that not appearing in Rock band exactly?

No there won't be a track pack.

 

Here is what Harmonix and the Beatles announced today :

 

http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=20886

 

Specifically read this paragraph :

"Rigopoulos clarified that the new game would not be under the Rock Band banner but would be its own individual title -- and said that interoperability with Rock Band instruments is "something we're not ready to talk about yet," though he did say it would be "an interactive music-making game [with] interactive performance of the Beatles' music.""

OK, that's something that hadn't been announced when I created the thread (which was yesterday, by the way). I'm sorry, I admit the title is now misleading, but please understand that when I posted everybody was saying that there were set for RB.

Now that news has piqued my interest, what exactly are they making?

Read the article I linked.

The issue with what you posted is the site you link was trying to guess what would be announced today and they failed miserably...

I read the article, and I know that the article I posted is wrong. but what do you want me to do? I can't edit the title. All I know is that when I posted the article, it was the only thing we knew at that moment. All I did was a rewording of the article. How am I supposed to know that Wall Street Journal would put an article without even knowing what the hell they're talking about

No biggy.
I just don't want people misled into buying Rockband because they think they are going to get Beatles DLC ( which a few people in this thread seem to think).
