Filed under: followup,friendsromanscountrymen,music — Andy @ 8:38 pm

Last June I wrote about the rumors of the Beatles – one of the only major bands to still refuse to release their catalog online – coming into the digital world.

In October I wrote that it was my current neighbors, Cambridge’s own Harmonix, that brought down the beast.

Today, the honorable Mr. Carleton Atwater posted up a trailer for game (scheduled for release 09/09/09):

How weird is it to see a video of the Beatles on YouTube, without fear of seeing the “Video removed due to copyright claim from Capitol Records” screen a few hours later? For more on the details of the game, head on over to Pitchfork.

  1. I find that they seem to be removing videos more actively now – there are still many active with Beatles music in them, but they seem to target certain recordings (especially outtakes).

  2. Now it says “This video has been removed due to terms of use violation”.
