There was some [great news](http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2007/08/14itunes.html)
from the iTunes Store yesterday. John Lennon’s solo catalog is now available for
download from the iTunes Store. You can choose between the normal tracks with DRM
or the new iTunes Plus files without DRM at a higher bit rate. I personally buy 
albums most of the time so I always buy the iTunes Plus songs because the album 
prices are the same regardless of file type. Plus, they sound better.

Now that Paul McCartney and John Lennon both have their music on the iTunes Store,
it is only a matter of time before the Beatles’ catalog is available. I have some
of their albums on CD, but there are others that I would love to buy through iTunes.
I’ve read that the recordings are being remastered for their digital release so 
the music should sound better than ever. I can’t wait to see what kind of exclusive
albums and tracks Steve Jobs talks EMI into releasing on iTunes first.
