The Beatles in my Rock Band ? Believe. Confirming that confirming email, MTV's Rock Band has licensed The Beatles' music reports The Wall Street Journal. This deal, set to be announced later today, is all the more remarkable considering how The Beatles have not allowed its music to be licensed to Apple's iTunes.
According to analysts, the tricky part will be connecting with many older Beatles fans and marketing the Rock Band title to them. The Wall Street Journal did not yet know which Beatles titles will be included or from which era. Both MTV and developer Harmonix declined to comment.
