Talking Download Beatles Album for $3.25!!!!!!

No idea if anybody else has seen this yet, but a website called 'bluebeat.com' that apparently is dedicated to providing cheap music downloads, is offerring downloads of the full Beatles back catalogue for $0.25 a track or $3.25 per album! Including the recently released re-mastered versions.

Not only that, its streaming all the tracks at 160kbps for free in a polished flash interface! Now this seems to be a slap in the face to EMI and/or Apple's licensing policies regarding digitising the Beatles for download. Its all over music forums, seems to have come from completely out of the blue, and it works! Im listening to it now, doesnt seem to be a scam Whats going on, worth a punt buying or will there be massive backlash from EMI etc? Can see some serious lawsuits coming

Link direct to Beatles tracks here:

Re: Download Beatles Album for $3.25!!!!!!

Heard about this on kerrang radio yesterday, it seems unbeliveable they can get away with this. But, then again is it really surprising? You can get your hand on any album by any artist, if you look in the right places
