Beatles & ACDC mp3’s $.25 via BlueBeat. W.T.F.?
The UK's Music Ally tipped me to this, but you have to see it for yourself. Downloads of The Beatles – and not $.99, but rather for a mere $.25 at BlueBeat Music. Same thing with ACDC. Neither act has ever been available legally as downloads.
Not sure you want to buy yet? Sign up for free and you can listen to anything without apparent limits.
The only explanation has to be that the U.S. based site has taken the beg for forgiveness rather than ask for permission approach to licensing. I can hear the billable hours clock starting to tick as a gaggle of LA music industry lawyers read this over their morning lattes.
There must be some Russian connection.
Turns out this probably isn’t legal at all…
