I just had an alert drop in my mailbox from MTV.
Apparently MTV Networks, owners of Harmonix, and Apple Corps Ltd, administrators of The Beatles releases of the 1960s, are holding a press conference tomorrow to make some announcement about an "exclusive agreement to develop a global music project."
The release lists a number of media contacts, including one of the main PR folks for Rock Band 2. This seems to back up what the Financial Times reported back in June. Though at the time it sounded like both Activision and Harmonix were wooing Apple Corps. Did Guitar Hero get the shaft or is another announcement, this one with Activision, hitting later this week. We'll update once we can needle out more official word.
Apple Corps Ltd. and MTV to Announce Exclusive Agreement to Develop Unprecedented Global Music Project
WHAT: Apple Corps Ltd. and MTV to announce an exclusive agreement to develop a global music project.
WHO: Jeff Jones, CEO of Apple Corps, Ltd.
Judy McGrath, Chairman and CEO of MTV Networks
Van Toffler, President of MTV Networks Music/Logo Group

Interesting, The Beatles as a company are always very slow on moving with the times...its all about money.

Interesting find here.
It most certainly sounds promising, but I wouldn't get my hopes too high just yet. We've been burned by these kind of things in the past when they've turned out not to be RB related

Brand New
Motion City Soundtrack
Gallows
